Is there any disadvantage to being a psycopath? The only one I can think of is psycopaths are less likely to obey the law and thus more likely to be caught and imprisoned, but if you're at a baseline of intelligence and know how to avoid getting caught then it seems like it's just a pure boon to your abilities as a person.

Psychopaths' are considered charming, sexually successful, manipulative, calculating, and unencumbered by emotional response or guilt. Studies have found that CEOs are more likely to have psycopathic traits.

If you're a psycopath who always obeys the law, you have an automatic edge in any interpersonal interaction. You can see the world as it is, rather than your skewed sense of reality burdened by guilt complexes and illusions of a just world.
