LDAR High IQ is cope

[ItsOverMan]

In junior high school here in America I was a member of Mensa. That meant my IQ was officially measured (at school in my case) in the top 2% of the population (mine was in the top 1%), but I still ended up at this place. I attached the Mensa welcome letter from when I first joined. I stopped being a Mensa member in high school because you, or your parent in my case, have to pay an annual fee to be a member, currently $107/year.

IQ hasn't even been particularly useful for making money for me, I've always had average income or less. But I had no interest in medicine, law, engineering, compsci. I don't want escorts. What really matters for income and career (besides looks and height) is connections and how neurotypical/entertaining your personality is and I had zero connections and zero help with finding work. Also humans are immediately repelled from me for some reason ...I assume it's my face or maybe being non-NT.

IQ is cope and it makes me sad to see boyos here trying to cope using "muh high IQ." I used to cope hard with IQ too because I felt like it was the only thing valuable, "interesting," and worthwhile about me. I still feel that way but I know it's cope now, and it's arguable how valuable high IQ really is. I’m thankful to God I’m intelligent, but sometimes I feel like my mental health would have been better if I had been average or below average IQ. I think high IQ makes one more prone to anxiety disorders and general overthinking of everything.

High IQ is more like a burden and curse for me. And foids are repelled by high IQ. They want stupid jesters.

I am too smart to know my problems, why they are happening , but I cannot do anything about that. It's like being chained in hell.

I can understand it if you were spawn-trapped in Curry Land or a Third or Second World shithole, but this is the equivalent of being born a Chad, and instead of working a job where you can use your looks to your advantage and improve your life, you choose to work on an Oil Rig.

Most high IQ jobs are actually done by mid IQ normies. Almost high IQ individual has ADHD and that's a sure shot way you will never be able to do a job properly.

the only thing that matters in this world is looks nobody will truly love u or compliment u for having high IQ

 

[Morbilius]

Having a genius level intellect is more rare then being chad

 

[BoredWolf]

Sounds rough man ,but you could develop and interest in something. I mean if you have MENSA level IQ then you can be very successful in a STEM career and find learning about it interesting through positive reinforcement

mensa seems like a scam to me, what reason would anyone have to pay $107 a year? what benefits do you get other than flexing “i’m in mensa brooooo”

In a serious country high IQ would allow you to find work when you are down and out. But in the US companies are banned from administering IQ tests for sorting applicants because they turn out to have disparate impact on blacks. It is legal to have specialized tests, like solving coding problems for a programming role, but you can't just take a test to prove that you are top percentile for any old job (even super humble jobs like postman or grocery store stocker). Instead you have to hope your resume stands out against the other 1000 applicants and better never have any gaps in employment otherwise into the trash you go, oh and good luck networking and making good impressions on people when you are ugly and socially retarded.

If being high IQ was useful in this society we would have known it by this point

Nobody gives a shit about your high IQ. All that matters is face, height, and being neurotypical/entertaining.

I think the main benefit was they had local groups you could meet up with and socialize with other high IQ people (I remember they had "wine and cheese" socials in my area), but that seemed like it was for normies/neurotypicals/good looking people. Otherwise they just sent you occasional newsletters. This was back in the 90s. I basically joined just to see what it was about and I guess to flex although I rarely told anyone I was in it.

Also, I didn't care about making a lot of money. Why would I work that hard and bust my ass when I knew it was over at 19 and people don't like me? I just wanted to make enough to provide for myself and be somewhat comfortable, and that doesn't take much for me. I haven't cared about impressing anyone since I was a teenager.

Never stated that anybody cares about your IQ. It's that you didn't use that Cognitive Ability to get a well-paying job to improve upon in your life long term wise, despite being Sub-5.

No IQ for your face.
