Why don't I see

I'm on at night, Deathgirl, so send me a tell to claim your prize. I always pay up on bets, you will find out.

So, using the word "douche" makes you the alpha-male. Irony has many forms. Think what you will, doesn't matter to me!

I am actually a member of "said" society. You can be, too. Just use your infinite wisdom, take the entrance exam (that is if you can find it), and apply! Simple as that. It's only that there are currently around ~30 members world-wide, but I'm sure you can swing it pal. Mensa has nothing on you.

I took a look at the "Titan Test". Seems the perfect scam to pry money from all the self-appointed geniuses of the world. $50 bucks to grade 45 questions what a deal. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Only $50 to feel important? I wonder how many people pay the fee and still remain at a shift manager position in some fast food joint? that 176 I.Q really comes in handy there when you've flunked college for the fifth time because you can't cite sources...

Ya know what I'm sayin'?

[WizardEQ]

I disagree to the comment about flunking out of college. Most members do quite well, as you would imagine, with post-secondary education which is undergraduate, graduate and post-grad. Some have multiple PhDs, in the order of 6 or 7. On the flip side, some do lack the social skills to adequately interact with professors to garner that extra edge to succeed. And of course, some do not finish their school. In any population, there are no absolutes; there's the majority swimming around the middle of the bell curve and those who make it to the tails of any normal distribution. With such a small population though, I find it safe to say that most have attained the highest forms of education you'll find anywhere.

Now take a look at this:

http://www.eskimo.com/~miyaguch/grady/emptypromise.html

To summarize, do those with high IQs necessarily have a significant advantage to succeed?

To address your second point about success (as in a job), I partially agree with it. A higher IQ doesn't translate into a higher salary, per se. It does at the 110-140 level because this level is required to get through college, and an undergrad degree is necessary for a career that will sustain yourself or a family. IQ beyond that (140+) won't get you that CEO job necessarily, but it should be sufficient to become a mathematician, particle physicist, or member of a think-tank. The positive correlation does taper off at the high end because the high paying jobs actually require more fortitude and determination than anything else. To be an investment banker you need to have a college degree or MBA, be willing to work ~90-120 hours a week, be a team player, and do whatever it takes. In these types of jobs, creativity is thrown out the window. That's why people with high IQs don't do these jobs; after a while they become so mundane and boring there's no more need to do them! The old adage: the world is run by "C" students rings true.

When the subject of IQ comes up, it is funny to see how people react. Your reaction is pretty defensive. It's not really the reaction I'd expect from these boards. I was actually looking more for interest rather than disdain. Also, an IQ of 176 is the minimum IQ required for entrance into Mega, not the ceiling. Members come from all walk of life and have unique interests. Our main similarity is that we like to solve problems, either fabricated or real-life. In the two careers I've had, I've worked with some very highly intelligent folks who do their jobs extremely well. Noone could get beyond a fraction right on the Mega or Titan tests. You can talk about the problems and even do some, but very few take the entire test, and even fewer get a 43/48. Don't talk the talk, if you can't walk the walk.

As an adult (let's say around 24 and finished with school) if you're successful you should be able to make enough money to support yourself at the bare minimum. When you start out, you're probably not making a hell of a lot. Even $50,000 is not a lot today! But as you become more proficient and acquire more responsibilities, you should eventually be making more and have enough to support yourself well, take a vacation or two, or even support a family. I worked in consulting for a decade and saw my salary triple over time. As of now, I'm doing a job I love, am married with a large family, have built my second house (over 6000 sq. ft. on an acre), can take vacations, and pretty much coast the rest of the way. I've used my powers for good and am pretty damn proud of the results. This last stuff I should never have to say, but I'm saying it because it has to be said.

I suggest that anyone here go for it!

I think the board would be better served if Tyen could translate WizardEqs posts into graph form.

TL;DR

Open a landscaping business in any area greater than a hundred thousand people and you are a millionaire inside of 10 years.

IQ doesn't mean dick. You are obviously swollen with useless ideas which is why you prattle on like a 15 year old with something to prove on a message board to a game retired half a decade ago.

The problem is that many forms of IQ measurement are heavily slanted towards linguistics and memorization. The dumbest of women can score well in these areas. Other forms of testing are weighted heavily towards advanced fields of math where only compartmentalized, retard savants are going to be able to compete (ie: aspergers).

Since the children of high IQ couples seem to regress to the mean of their long genetic history (race), the only longterm, meaningful application of IQ testing would be to find out which racial groups consistently perform poorly or below average and enact a plan of sterilization or genocide to prevent them from dragging down the rest of the human race. An alternative would be to isolate them on their own continent/planet.

The article also mentions that the high IQ children "matured" earlier. This is an ambiguous term that doesn't mean anything in the context they use it but most of what I've seen says the exact opposite. African children learn how to walk earlier and seem to mature sexually the fastest while having the lowest IQ, Caucasians are right in the middle, North East Asians develop the slowest, walk last, and seem to have the highest IQ on the bell curve that I've seen.

IQ has nothing to do with self preservation. If you live in a country and someone tries establishing a state within a state and undermines your interests, people tend to react violently and expel you. Jews have been expelled from 79 different countries, many such as Spain multiple times. The Nazis were hardly doing anything new here. People don't want their economic and political systems infiltrated and taken over by alien, mafia groups that extort the ethnocentric majority they care nothing about.

How is the normal population supposed to survive and keep the Bernie Madoffs out when a state within a state is formed operating under mafia laws like this?

Women tend to try and portray themselves as sex objects due to their subconscious desire to reproduce and have a family so men tend to treat them that way. Self fulfilling prophecy.

Also, funny how you miss my point completely with your myopia. I used "global warming" as a catch-all phrase because everyone is aware of it. Do I state my views on it anywhere? Quite presumptuous of you. I use it merely as an example to make a previous point.

Working in an almost purely liberal environment that perceives itself as "highly intelligent" (even though some are complete dimwits), I sometimes have the feeling that my own thoughts and ideas are completely radical and outrageous. Based on past experience, I usually keep my thoughts to myself. I've learned that most others just cannot comprehend past certain levels of understanding or logical reasoning. Most put heart before head.

Personally, I feel that global warming is another piece of the propaganda machination produced by society/government/people. You are correct with your analysis it seems. Much of society has jumped on this bandwagon so long ago that they have no idea why they're still on it; it's called blind acceptance at this point. Original thought exists merely as a fleeting thought for many.

I also think that many illnesses, including cancer are psychosomatic. If I dare bring this up in conversation, someone inevitably voices that their mother/sister/son/cousin died a miserable, long, painstaking death from some horrible form of cancer. Conversation over, because at this point emotions are high and rational thought defenestrates. I'm not saying illnesses are brought on purely by bad thoughts. I am saying that the power of positive thinking, meditation, and mind control can influence various aspects of everyone's life in extreme ways. Doctors have seen tumors in terminally-ill patients shrink to nothing and have no "medical" explanation for this. We, as humans, have so much to learn we haven't even scratched the surface yet.

The next time, think before you blindly judge someone.
