Reply #37: Being high IQ may not be paradise, but its way better than being low IQ

[aikoaiko]

Almost all the data suggests people with higher than average IQ graduate high school and college more, avoid arrests and stay out of jail more, and avoid poverty much more than people with below average IQ even after controlling for parental socio-economic status.

High IQ doesn't gaurantee success, but it does make it much more likely.

The cure for high IQ is frontal lobotomy. All your problems will go away.
