My best friend is a farmer and has officially been tested to have an IQ of 149!

High IQ is not a necessity but its important to have people who have a high rank,
Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, Nikola Tesla, Isaac Newton and maybe
Satoshi Nakamoto had all high IQ and look what they have contributed to our
lives but could they cook well, or create their own clothes or create beautiful
artworks? probably not.

Everyone has a talent high IQ or not and not everyone can do everything to a high
standard even if they know the theory.

what is the point of having high IQ?
A higher IQ means you use more of your brain power. Someone with a higher IQ will find it easier than the average person to understand new things faster and think more creatively than others. But in all this is all with the higher IQ refuses to engage his brain, and someone with a lower IQ work very hard to develop his own intelligence quotient, the person with the lower IQ that has worked hard can be smarter than the person with the higher IQ that has refused to use his brains to think.

...create something people are willing to pay money for and...
that is totally false. Today shiny objects command very high price such as diamond, pokemon card, luxury bag, necklace, oil painting, which is stupid. Many of the highly educated professors are living poor, it doesn't mean they create nothing in their life, but many of their creations are selling dirt cheap or just throw away to dustbin, or donate to the community, Linux is a total free software. Not convinced? Thomas Edison greatest creation, lightbulb are worthless, and many more great inventors do not have high networth, they all have just a name to be remembered as a frugal bloke and slave. The reason can be regarded to Steve Jobs, who like to quote, he is marketing genius that make a product created by the nerd to sell at premium price.

This connotes that having those or an IQ's enables you to handle the affairs of life more better than an ordinary person or a layman. Having IQ also position you to qualifies into working in a good company than others who are not knowledgeable enough to handle that position of work. So IQ helps during school and after school, you are being smarter and creatives than others who aren't making any efforts in times of life as well as general innovation just as Bitcoin was introduced and established to us by Satoshi Nakamoto.
I've been to jobs that require taking an IQ test first before hiring you which is a little discriminative as not everyone who can do good are book smart but at the same time if they've been doing stuff like that for a while and they have thrived, it's a testament to how successful their hiring process is right? But I digress, having high IQ would definitely help you a ton in life, makes school a breeze, finding jobs easier, and landing you a better life a much simpler task compared to the average person. It comes with its own drawbacks though, such as a high predisposition for suicide and depression, as well as many other mental health issues that are associated with having an above-average IQ.



If you read carefully with my post you would understand we are both making the sense no point to argue for any reason.
We believe that those with IQ are more beneficial than those who with lower IQ, Like just as you said having gone through with the IQ test is something very important, because most people usual fail some simple task and if they couldn't pass such test this means that they aren't qualify and suit for the task, from my own point of view there is no discrimination in this case because if you were the own who is employing  workers, I am sure you would employed credible people instead of just employing without them going through the test in other way round, you are risking your company and office to a great lose.

^^^ Many high IQ people are not integrated into what the rest of us think is reality. It's because their IQ keeps them from wanting to play the 'stupid' game like the rest of us idiots.

It's hard to find the well-integrated, high-IQ people. They are the leaders in big business. If you are not one of their insiders, you simply don't see them.

Does anybody remember the old 'Wizard of Id' newspaper comic? The King of Id got together with the queen of Iot, and they had some kids.

For me, I find that people with high IQ are not successful in their working lives, they are often people who are not well integrated in their society, they are introverted and not sociable and isolated.

They have the ability to think theoretically in a way that exceeds the ability of others, but in my opinion they cannot solve the problems on the ground by themselves because they are not integrated into reality. Therefore, it is better for them to be adopted by major economic institutions or companies that benefit from their extraordinary talents and employ them to serve society.

But still, there are more great people who have high IQs like the inventors of today's technology. and inventors in the past.

And in work I think people with high IQs would rather start their own company than work for someone else. but a high IQ also does not guarantee someone can be economically successful.

Because to be successful you can't only have a high IQ. but also courage in action is also needed. and the ability to improve skills is also needed. and if it's about great skills then not people with high IQ can have it. But great skills are usually owned by people who have high EQ. EQ (great skill) & IQ (great thinking ability). both are needed. but can not be a benchmark.

what is the point of having high IQ?

it is believed that high IQ make you a better person.

it is also believed that high IQ get you more score in a test in school.

but what does it make you a person after leaving the school.

in real life, there is finited of everything resource, what does high IQ help the reality?

let me assume, when there is only 100 apple in the town, high IQ person would more likely get more of the apple, yup, high IQ help you get more apple from finited source of apple. thus make you a better breadwinner, high IQ make a better breadwinner than low IQ person.

finally:
is it economics topic? it is politics isn't it? Smiley
source, please?
why should I believe you?
go back to your base

let me know how do you think.
IQ isn't just limited to test but of course, if you want to relate to it in a test perspective, you should as well realise that, not all tests are written or taken on screens. Life itself tests you on several grounds and bases.

How your able to perform in goose defines how well you understood how to make life choices and in turn, what your IQ is like in the field being tested.

It's intelligent quotient and I take that to mean a measure of how your able and how fast yo make certain choices which could be deemed right. High IQ helps, you just have to know how to apply it.

Quote
Geniuses often have high IQs, but not everyone with a high IQ can be considered genius. Intelligent people, on the other hand, can have strong intelligence in many areas without having very high IQs. Intelligence can be expressed and measured in a variety of ways, and individuals with diverse intelligence can make valuable contributions in a variety of fields and professions.
[1]Google

From the writing above, IQ measurement often does not involve people who have emotional, social, musical, or creative intelligence, so a high IQ does not guarantee whether someone will have better money-making abilities than smart people, government officials around the world and also big entrepreneurs don't have high IQ but they have good intelligence and also take advantage of opportunities very well, so they can even hire people with high IQ to become staff in their company, in conclusion, as long as you have good intelligence then you will definitely make a lot of money by utilizing it.

Higher IQ doesn’t mean you will always make more money. I think the man with the highest IQ alive works somewhere making minimum wage.

There are also many dumb people out there who have a low IQ and they are millionaires. There is no correlation really. These days, being smart and getting good grades doesn’t always mean you will be wealthy.
Was about to say that about the first line, we are so preoccupied of who's the smartest that we don't find solutions to solve the problem of slave labor and possibly losing the next greatest mind to exhaustion in those factories. IQ isn't an accurate scale of being a brilliant person, there's no precise measure to the measurement of someone's knowledge, there's multiple factors that IQ disregard, they split street smart with book smart which is kind of stupid because they go hand in hand as they are the oversimplication of the concept theory and practice. The point I guess of measuring someone's IQ is probably to help build self-esteem among the geniuses to are tacit in nature because there's so few who they think understands them.

— IQ = Knowledge to solve problems.
— High IQ = more Knowledge to solve problems properly
— Low IQ = less Knowledge to solve problems properly


— Knowledge = Light to see
— High Knowledge = more Light to see
— Low knowledge = less Light to see


— Light = the right information that eliminates ignorance.
— The More the Light the better. The Less the Light the more the problems like disease, hunger, poverty (inability to take care of ones needs), confusion, etc




*How To obtain Light: Consume enough good or holy information/foods only, and trust them to guide/help you.

* How To dim or quench the Light: Consume bad information/foods and trust them to guide/help you

As it is not surprising, but the answer will not be unambiguous.

1. Positive side: this is knowledge, the desire for development, critical thinking, better and more complex goals in life. Accordingly, there is a high probability of a high standard of living, recognition, and success.

2. On the other hand - no matter how strange it sounds, but "it's easier for a fool to live." No, this does not mean that being a fool, you will have everything that is written in paragraph 1. This means something else - you will not have the realization that you live poorly, that you have little money, that you have no prospects.
Near the fool there will always be someone who will say - you live normally, there are those who live even worse, so here's a penny for your work, and you will probably work now 12 hours a day for the same money Smiley

A person with low intelligence also has low needs in life. Believe me - if you are planning to have your own villa by the age of 45-50, accounts in several banks, savings in cryptocurrency, good education for children, happy grandchildren, the opportunity to gather all families once a month on the ocean and spend a great time, then a primitive and the poor dream of a lifetime, of course exaggerated, "buy a new iPhone"!

A person without a high level of intelligence does not have a very important quality - critical thinking. And this is a very important skill for a real assessment of what is happening, understanding the situation, developing measures to change the situation. Therefore, the majority of the undeveloped are poor, unhappy, and this is systemic for them and in many generations.

There are endless benefits of having a high IQ and just saying it seem needless, in a world were the general IQ levels is at a constant decline it's a great thing to actually be able to still maintain a high IQ.

High IQ can
+ Help you get task done well and on time.
+ Help you have a better understanding of thing faster.
+ Create financial opportunity for yourself.
+ Be logical and discipline in your approach to things.

But it has a side effect and that you may not be able to interact properly with people of lower IQ, because of the distance IQ and you may be see as someone who feels perfect and you opinion may seem hateful

...they may not necessarily do well in other aspects of life...
It is too often, they have to be careful in choosing their career.

...write in bad English...to work on your writing skills...
Yes your highness, having high command of English is a respect to the community and the kingdom. Having perfect American English is a good start. Those weak in English tend to be very cagey snobbish and chauvinistic about other language too. Language reflect the true nature of a culture, beautiful language also give the impression to a person of high calibre, intelligence, professional and reliable. Protecting English language, it is an important duty to every gentleman.

high IQ does not make you a better person. it just makes you better at working thing out

IQ is not about being born with a skill or knowledge. its about having the better ability of finding solutions, work arounds, or even just spotting problems

idiots think that if they can call a flaw a feature that makes them smart. but they have not thought about the problem or a solution, or even a real useful function for the flaw.. so not knowing anything, they dont want to do anything about it so pretend its a feature just to stand at the sidelines pretending to be smart

however a smart person would see a problem and:
find a way to abuse the flaw in a way for gain.
find a way to fix it
inform others of the solution for fixing/gaining from it

but not all smart people are good people. there are many scammers that abuse dumb people.

OP, I think I understand what you are trying to express here, yeah, but high IQ in humans can be in different aspects of their career, profession, academic degree, etc. For example, someone who has a high IQ on how to run a business could expand the business by opening other branches. Also, someone can have a high IQ in academics; they can read, write, and pass their exams very well, but with such an IQ in only academics, they may not necessarily do well in other aspects of life.

Some people have a high IQ to counsel others and solving family problems, but they can't handle their own homes. Some don't have the high IQ to manage their office; they could get employed in a large private company, but due to poor performance, they can easily get sacked, even though they were people of great intelligence in the high institution. In general, high level of IQ in a career that someone chooses will grant them excellent.

OP, I know that the forum is not against individuals that write in bad English because it's not the mother tongue of most people here, but it's very important to write correctly with good punctuation because that's what makes readers easily understand the message you are trying to pass. Some people can just skip a thread after reading the first and second paragraphs, and when it doesn't make sense to them, they will just skip the topic. So, I will advise you to  work on your writing skills; it will help build you a great reputation here. You can read Advantages of engaging in quality contributions on the forum.

Don't take it so hard on me, it's just friendly advice.


Cheers 🥂, Dr.Bitcoin_Strange 👺👺

Yep, I have seen my schoolmates considered to be the first section as they were full of book readers and in the year-end program, they are the kids who are valedictorians and with honors.  Academically they are good. Met them in college in the nearby city, and most of them now drink beer. Does look like it's not their first time anymore but I'm certain those kids had not tasted a beer during high school.  It's in their college days when the first time they got a life. They can explain thermodynamics, I give them that.

If a person with a high IQ uses this intelligence for good then he's a better person I suppose. If he uses his intelligence to get away with crimes he did I guess that's still good but doesn't make him a better person.

A higher IQ makes you more suited for complex problem solving and that's the basis of upstarts in today's world. The ability to solve a problem means you create something people are willing to pay money for and that makes you a better bread winner.

meta = very primitive sth
Meta actually means something that is progressive or beyond the current sphere, like meta-physics.
