Is it enough to be smart with just nothing to lean on and go on with your life? Because i feel that there are a lot of people who doesn't know how to handle their money with regards to see in the future. Is it enough to be smart and not be strategical or somewhat a person who has a lot of experience. Who would you choose?

For me it is required to be a master of both things like of course you can not have experience if you are not going to try and some people would think it's a waste of their time if they are doing what they know already like repeating their work over and over again. So it should be in a balance.

It's better to be strategic than to be smart. Being strategic means u have the skills to execute something that you have come up with. What is being smart if you can not put it into action. #happylang

That remains to be seen, though

In real life anything is possible, so I wouldn't draw conclusions out of the blue. That is to say if you lack sharpness of mind, all your strategies will be dull and dumb by definition. I mean the ones that will be actually working for you since you won't be able to come up with anything more sophisticated for being dumb (the opposite of being smart). On the other hand, to live a decent life, you often don't need any strategy at all beyond just being prudent and, yes, smart enough. But if you are smart and work out a decent strategy which you follow through, you will obviously fare a lot better than without any. As the saying goes, you can get much further with a kind word and a gun than with just a kind word. Strategy be your gun here
