Are People With High IQs More Successful?

[Water]

Generally speaking, people who score higher on IQ tests will, on average, go on to do better in conventional measures of success in their life. But is it true?

Intelligent quotient(IQ) tests, by scientific definition, measures a person's reasoning ability( how good are you at solving problems? ), it is designed to assess human intelligence.

How much IQs are needed to succeed in life? How do I increase it? Or do I even need to care?
Let's face it, we've all been curious about how smart we need to be in order to get to where we want to be faster. I'm one of them.

So I did some research. Here's what I found:

Jay Zagorsky, author of a study on wealth and IQ and a research scientist at Ohio State University's Center for Human Resource Research says ''People don't become rich because they are smart,'' he said ''Your IQ has really no relationship to your wealth.'

Warren Buffet, one of the richest billionaires in the world says that if you have an IQ over 130 you should sell the extra to someone else.

Your IQ has LITTLE to do with how wealthy you become.

What are your views on this subject?
