>>17578049

Its actually not that great. I find it impossible to relate to most people. The iq difference between me & the average is the same difference between the average & someone with downs syndrome. I get gaslit all the time because I'll be years ahead of the curve even for the smarties which is mistaken for idiocy. If I talk down to people I get ahead in life but it makes me feel like a bad person.

>>17579037
Sounds like you might be retarded if talking to niggers makes you feel dumber

>>17579269
Me too, it hurts so bad

>>17579269
What does gaslit mean?

>>17578049
If you aren't that smart, you need to get into a position where you learn a lot about one specific, highly specialized thing and then sell that one thing

People will take you as some kind of autistic specialist.

What comes to mind most recently: About a month ago I was talking with some coworkers about the Coronavirus. Said, "might as well stock up on water & dried goods now because they're cheap, keep forever, & you use them anyway. Better to have it & not need it than need it and not have it, & I feel like my life is worth a $50 investment. "

Basically got laughed at and called a conspiracy theorist.
>anon do you really think the government would lie to us
>why do you need to buy food & water when the stores have plenty of food & water comes from the tap
>but the numbers coming out of China are decreasing
>there's no way that'll reach us all the way here in Toronto

>>17579509
Basically, being told something is false that you know for a fact is true to make you doubt yourself.

High IQ is no good and does not lead to happiness and it will only bring you success if you are already rich. I envy the retards that don't know why you would use a recursive function over a for loop, or constantly meme bogosort, because they have girlfriends/have plenty of other retards to talk to and relate with (and I don't even mean chads and stacies, I mean my peers in the same major). I would gladly give my last 40 IQ points away if I could, and even if I did i'd be miserable the rest of my life anyways because of "muh reclusive genius" reputation hanging over my head (the town rabble's/3 years worth of highschool students' impression of me). I can't even be sure i'd be happy if I had a gf because I have never had one, and my only current prospect is likely as autistic and emotionally unintelligent as I am.

The problem with having a high/super high iq is you will miss something fundamental, something so basic it shatters your hypotheses even if you are basically right. So let’s talk biz. Let’s say you have a super High iq and you created a delicious chicken recipe cuz everyone likes chicken and you can make it for pennies. On top of this, you find it makes you feel energetic and healthy and even makes you younger. Everyone is coming to eat your new chicken, right? Wrong. No one will come to eat your chicken cuz you missed a fundamental assumption. People hate you. Your personality is shit, and you don’t have a meme group who sucks your dick constantly to make others feel like it’s ok to suck your dick. Your chicken business goes bankrupt and there goes the secret to immortality.

Protip: people would rather die/suffer/cry with the devil they know than be with the God they don’t know.

>>17578049
Any psychologist worth their salt will tell you how limited IQ is as a useful measure of intelligence. Gardner's theory is a much more useful alternative, and one which shuts down the arrogance which occurs with high IQ Dunning-Kruger insufferables.
Of course, many who read this will instantly think I'm low IQ, because of their delicate ego and arrogance. If that's you, read what Hawking said about IQ.

>>17581487
I used to drink alot and smoke alot of weed when I was in highschool because I wanted to fit it. I managed to numb my brain enough to relate to people but it probably cost me a decent portion of my gift. Doesn't feel too good

Psychology is extremely pseudoscientific. Truly, psychology is the amongst the lowest IQ fields in academia. So of course they would rationalize why the IQ is irrelevant. While, naturally, committing 500 fallacies in the process. Doesn't mean they are "psychologically intelligent." They are fucking retards. Who, incidentally, might just be responsible why more and more people are ill and depressed today. Because all the supposed "social intelligence" (which is really non-existent) doesn't help you if you are too fucking low IQ. (Of course there are also autistic psychiatrists who love analysis. Or think of Freud. Autistic.)

Gardner is a generic hippie who sets up strawmen, intentionally misinterpreting what the idea of an contextual IQ is supposed to represent in order to say "there are multiple intelligences." Happens a lot today. Think of "there are no races" characters. So nobody really thinks that races in that sense exist. But he's the type who sets up strawmen to say "there are no differences." So, as analogy, he'd deny the idea of some ethnicities having a higher likelihood for lactose intolerance. Because there are some Asians who can drink milk. Doesn't disprove the idea of an IQ. And the IQ is probably a decent way of measuring intelligence. Of course there are retards who have a high IQ. Like Dawkins. Who is a retard on the level of Gardner. And intelligent people don't go around measuring their IQ. But that's because they know that they have a high IQ and understand that it isn't everything. And don't need to prove it themselves with a meme test. BUT! While they know that the IQ isn't everything, they know that a high IQ is fucking important. It's the fucking lowest common denominator. And if you deny this, you're fucking cancerous pseudointellectual.

>>17581491
And then you also cite another populist scientist who was propped up by the media. Meaning Hawkins. When there are infinitely more intelligent people alive today. You ARE low IQ. You are a fucking retard who is full of meme knowledge. Citing meme shit like "multiple intelligences" proposed by meme scientists memed up by the media like Hawkins or Garder. Go fuck yourself you fucking definition of an idiocrat.

>grades slip because of autistic procrastination habit resulting from never having to try before college
i relate to this, 144 iQ fag, with a couple of similar friends, all hit this wall in college where we had literally never had to learn how to study because it came so easily until now.
Found coding and am working in a.i. now so im all good but some of my friends weren't so lucky to find that thing that comes easily to them.

>>17581707
*analogously, it doesn't disprove the idea of an IQ. Richard Feynman had a relatively low IQ. So there are exceptions like in the milk case. But in the big picture of things, his IQ was still high. And still, a person with high IQ will know that it isn't everything, but at the same time not deny its importance. And you WILL agree, unless you're a low IQ psychologist who is trying to rationalize his low intelligence.

>>17581721
*Hawking, of course.

I hope you are fucking baiting.

>>17581491
Iq predicts life outcome. It's statistically significant. Hawkings said that because he was being magnanimous & smart enough to know that saying anything else would have gotten him into trouble & been a huge hassle to explain.

Just buy and dont sell. It worked for me. Most people would sell when they were up 10x. Not me cause I'm stupid. I'm like 10x is nice but 100x is better. 100x and i can quit my monkey job. But Link is even better. When we get to 1k eoy I'm gonna be at like 4000x. 4000x! I'm could buy a freaking plane. Not with my stacks but with my steakes. I figure staking 100k be like that. Probably not actually get a plane cause flying is scary but my RV will be nice. Gonna be awesome. Probably keep my house cause I like this place but definantly gonna get a sweet little hideaway up in the mountains watch it snow and junk. It doesnt snow here. Just hot as balls all summer but I love the beach. Got my eye on sweet little boat and I'm gonna name it The Stinky Link, maybe get some flames on the sides. Idk just spit ballin. Man I'm hungry for steaks now. Just buy link fellas. Gonna be awesome.

>>17579269
Your major problem is a lack of rhetorical skill, if you talk down and feel like a bad person. As you've discovered, normal people can't think rationally or intelligently. It's on you to think for them and help lead the way. You lead the way with rhetoric, not spewing facts and hurting feelings.

I've 137IQ and literally predicted every moonshot since 2017 but i'm probably the worst trader ever:
>Bought Link at ICO, sold everything at 60 cents
>Bought ZIL before it boomed in 2018 at 300 sats, didn't sold at 2000+ sats and left holding bags until low 100s
>Bought FTM before cronje was even on board, sold too early
>Bought Tomochain at ICO and also sold too early
>Overall ATH was x10 higher than current


Now i'm all in sub 20M marketcap gem, genuinely think this is top 20 coin by eoy and probably the best deal i've ever seen in crypto, I'll probably sell too soon so it doesn't matter, will shill it after i already did x2.

>>17585724
You have no hands, doubt you're 137.

>>17585785
Honestly part of the reason Link and some coin mooned hard is because they have dumb communities, Less swing traders+holders that are easier to fool+dumb people who can't rationalize away their greed= Profit.

tfw really high math iq but really low verbal iq, so people don’t take me seriously at first, but I can do maths, programming, engineering, finance, really any mathematical aptitude extremely well.

But even if it has some correlation with some outcomes that doesn't actually prove that IQ measures intelligence. It just shows that it measures something that is somewhat useful.

False. High IQ definitely correlates with (actual) depression and melancholy.

Test.mensa.no

Take this test if you want an accurate range. People who say they scored at least 130 passed an actual Mensa test and or scored near or above their score. The creator Commented on the veracity of it as well. And yeah, I still manages a very high score even while running to the bathroom to explode diarrhea out from my ass.

Low IQs are unironically better than midwits because they at least listen and don’t try to whataboutism and gish gallop to soothe their fragile sense of truth

Seriously you fags will take any tiny little thing you can grasp fully and try to pick everything else apart with it. It’s so annoying, especially when you take some alternative avenue like social performance or physical intimidation to establish your tyrannical and retarded cults of personality.

I wish all 100-120 IQs would suddenly drop dead.

>>17578049
The problem with high IQ is that people tend to overestimate its importance: a person's value is a combination of its network, skills, work ethic and intelligence.
If you focus only on one of these, you'll be pretty worthless.

Low IQs just have an instinctual feel for life and truth. They’re quite accurate physiognomists and do have a visceral understanding of morality and right behavior, but they are susceptible to psychopaths and their passions. Where they lack in reasoning they compensate with intuition.

Midwits on the other hand are the very reason why democracy is a fucking sham. They convolute everything they grace with their false sense of superiority and understanding. They cannot juxtapose data once they subscribe to a position and are contingent on where their ego stands in light of anything. An example of a proper midwit is anyone who loyally watches “The Office”. It’s literally the perfectly designed show for such people. It feigns quality and wit by setting within a low skilled white collar environment and nuanced low brow humor/slapstick. American creators are pretty smart targeting this demographic so well.

Just a reminder that extroverted chads beat high IQ introverts when it comes to making money. In the real world no one actually gives a fuck about your IQ (or intelligence).

I knew a guy who was somewhere in the 140+ range he made a ton of money starting an online biz then got rich by buying a shitload of BTC at 400. eventually I had to cut contact with him because he was becoming an insufferable cunt always arguing about anything and going off the deep end on /pol/ memes and conspiracy shit. alst I heard he fled to a remote island because the corona virus is gonna kill us all oh well.
