Street smarts can keep you alive!
Good to have some of both.
Street smart who reads. But mainly street smart
They are equally valuable
Neither tbh but I'd go with book smarts
Unless you have good friends, family and coworkers having only book smarts won't get you too far in life.
It all depends where you live.
My street smarts keep me going strong
They compliment each other like coffee and milk
