IQ doesn't matter if you don't have any skills

[Toad]

I see a lot of users on here bragging about having 130 IQ or whatever but they never have anything to show for it. My IQ is around 112 or so but I was born with the ability to draw and I taught myself how to code, make websites, 3D model for games and VR, paint traditionally and digitally, compose and produce music, video editing, graphic design, AI, animate by hand or digitally, stop motion, creative writing, songwriting, I'm a really good rapper too, guitar, piano, and I'm proficient in a vast number of creative and office applications. Too many to list here.

Being 130 IQ is cute and all but what exactly do you know how to do? Even a dog can catch a ball. What tricks do you know?

It's legit pointless narcy rambling tbh. Mfs that brag about IQ are probably lying. Maybe if you're 130 IQ then you might be really good at math but nobody cares

IQ is your intellectual potential, namely your effective learning rate.
I don't think anyone said IQ guarantees success, it's just an excellent indicator and predictor of it.
Besides, 112 isn't anything to scoff at, you're almost an entire SD above average, you're still smarter than around 8 in 10 people in the room.

I mean, yeah, I know that I'm at least above average but I think another factor to consider is raw talent and creativity. You could be 130 IQ and be capable of high level problem solving but if you're not creative or imaginative then you're just gonna be stuck speedrunning rubiks cubes or tutoring people in math

I think you've got a point that character traits are very important.
However, we know IQ and income earnings have a very strong positive correlation.
A well educated guy with an IQ of 130 and a decent work ethic is likely to do very well in life.

I agree, I've been broke most of my life so that tracks. However, I am mentally ill

The fact that you correlate speedrunning rubik's cubes with a high IQ puts me in doubt whether your IQ even is 112, it should be in the lower end of averages jfl.
