Thank you.
I was about to make the same comment and also point out that even int the most un-brainy situations brains help.
I recall a study that showed higher IQ toddlers are less likely to die in an accident. Even in our super child safe words, even with toddlers, brains go a long way.
But then again higher IQ might correlate with higher family income which correlates with more parental attention... that's statistics for you.
- gaika 18y agoI bet there will be a study that shows how smarter people lost more during current crisis.
- byrneseyeview 18y agoIn the same income / net work category, maybe. Otherwise, this would just be because of the ridiculously high correlation between IQ and income.
- Xichekolas 18y agoEven within income groups, intelligence and the ability to save (and invest) some of your earnings might be correlated. In that case, smarter people would lose more when the market tanks.
- diego 18y agoHigher IQ toddlers are likely to have higher IQ parents who may be less likely to leave them unattended at the swimming pool, to have dangerous objects around the house, etc.
