Hard to reason about some things with people, because they just won't get what you do.
Also seen in mental illness, but usually because you're insane rather than smart.

Because high intelligence is just as much of a disability as low intelligence. A 50 IQ brainlet is just as far away from the population average as a 150 IQ smart guy. High IQ is not compatible with societal norms established and enforced by midwits.

Jordan Peterson says this and both of you are wrong. High IQ people can be slower because neurons are more distant and functional networks within the brain do not communicate as efficiently. That's why midwits and low IQs are so off the cuff and can speak and think quickly and then act if you're stupid if you aren't saying crap as fast and as well as they are.

The only upside of high IQ is that you can basically be anything you want professionally: doctor, lawyer, physicist, mathematician, etc. but even then you're limited on actually getting the job because you have to blend in with normalfags to make them like you.

They've probably effortlessly/subconciously overridden their basic evolutionary functions like the intense desire to reproduce or gain social recognition which manipulate the average man into jump through all kinds of hoops and going through all kinds of endeavors in the course of their life with little introspection.
This frees them to put mind to what they actually want to do. But life is a paradox because nothing is truly meaningful which some say makes everything meaningful. Like knowing you live in a simulation but knowing there's nothing you can do about it so why not make the best of it.

because they're dumb they are bound to wrongly think they are smart. they aren't smart enough to realize they're dumb.

Retard, intelligence isn't some magic superpower.

In the same way, if someone is mentally retarded, no amount of explaining (as is the case with you), will convey just how impossible it is to get retards to understand basic concepts.

Not having peers is the biggest one. The most intelligent feel the most lonely if they aren't with people that are similar to them, which is a hard ask, because they're genetic outliers. There's a much smaller pool to work with and then out of those people, 90% of them are probably fags you wouldn't get along with just because you two have the same intelligence level. You can always be friends with dumber people, but it's like being friends with an animal. It just doesn't hit the same. I haven't met anyone that I really click with after I left school and was no longer with the smart students. I've just accepted the loneliness at this point and after about 6 years of being chronically alone, it doesn't even really hurt that much anymore, but it does get boring at times

That makes no sense. If you have high IQ, wouldn't you also have a sense of empathy and insight in consequences? Otherwise 90 percent would be intelligent yet victims of their own stupidity, which sounds more like reductio ad absurdum.

I'm a super high IQ guy and I never wanted to go to college because the corporate world is super gay and lame.

I just don't want to do the things that are necessary in order to acquire a bunch of money. things might change when I get older though. apparently people find it a lot easier to do boring tasks as they get older. If I would have stuck with any of the money making methods tried and just stopped doing in the past 8 years I would probably be a multi-millionaire many times over by now. but, personality flaws such as laziness are not tied to IQ

You have to be stupid to not KNOW how to become wealthy. It's not a difficult problem to solve intellectually. All of the knowledge has been put out there by hundreds of people in as many ways as you can chop up the information. There are several methods too. The information isn't the issue. The issue is follow through. If you are too retarded to KNOW how to do that, then you're a legitimate mongoloid fucking idiot. Nobody can blame you for not following through, since most people either never start or fail continuously and give up. You, even being a fucking retarded nigger could do it too. You have a literal slave mindset for thinking such a thing is so impossible that you think it requires superman to make it happen and that anyone that thinks this is possible is deluded. You're actively attempting to dissuade people from even thinking such a thing is possible. Kill yourself. You're making the world a worse place by default with your existence within it.

Approaching the subject piano skill is not audience satisfaction or how many awards and billions Kanye has. We are concerned with skills. Knowledge of key signatures of all scales Major and Minor all the flats all the sharps. Sight reading. He is quizzing you. He has outlined a curriculum with milestones that spans months. This is what would be necessary for an audition at a school band. People's reaction is completely niggerish self justification. Like a woman bitching that "if you don't like me at my [trash woman moment] then you don't deserve me at my [treasure sexual relief]"

Realistically, a sense of isolation from most people and society at large, stunted maturity from being abled to gratify your intellectual wants with ease leading to boredom, percieved as arrogant and narcissistic (while potentially being so), and last but most importantly- Thinking that cognition can substitute a lived experience through our reality.
That being said, intelligence is one of the single most important factors for long term success and is life on easy mode. It's more of a silver spoon than those born into wealth. Stupidity/ignorance isn't bliss. It's a chronic misery that eats at one's wellbeing and its only percieved as blissful because they only look at 90 iq-115 iq range where the person can still perform his daily tasks to put bread on the table. Lower down, such tasks become too much, making life a series of pain and undignified suffering, constricting what life has to offer due to the inability to become anything of consequence

If a genius experiences a high degree of suffering, they'd still be blessed because of just how much potential they have for creating completely novel narratives in this world. The most the millionaire cunts can do is rehash ideas and keep the wheels turning; they'll be forgotten by history.
I said it was more valuable than wealth because an idiot with money will not be with it for too long and even if they're lucky enough to have so much money where it wouldn't be possible to squander it all they'll still be pathetic.

It is very important to consider that IQ is a single component of intelligence; and even IQ can be further divided into verbal and visual, even specific parts of the tests having high variation (ie. spatial rotational tests). Furthermore, in a broader historical context, racial variations are specifically interesting in this regard. In particular East Asians score about a third of a standard deviation higher than whites, nevertheless they have not contributed to modern science nearly as much as their white counterparts. Notably they are often characteristically uncreative (more so the Chinese but that is besides the point).
I will define what you referred to as "extremely high iq" as inividuals with IQ scores around three standard deviations higher than the mean of whites (0.13%), though comparable circumstances and people exist with more commonality at around ~2.5 SD.
Really there are two seperate aspects to consider:
1. genealogical + biological
2. social
For "1" I am referring to the genetic circumstances by which the high intelligence occurs. For my first claim I only have anecdotal evidence, but I hope you understand it as a whole to be self evident.
Such high intelligence is abeneficial to the individual's "evolutionary prospects" but not necessarily maladaptive when viewed on a population scale. Like how it is beneficial to have a certain amount of sociopaths within a society so that they may peform certain tasks others are less qualified for, like military service. (Though partially genetic sociopathy is substantially enviornmental).
Not completely, but intelligence variance trends with general dysgenicness. As in down syndrome, autism, and on the opposite side of the spectrum schizophrenic tendencies, manic psychological disorders, and perhaps comedically also autistic tendencies.
For "2", as to social I mean the unique social interactions and development that occur with such intelligence.

After the establishment of higher reasoning, (conscientousness) which for them will occur more profoundly and at an accelerated pace (though often physically less developed than their peers), there begins the detachment from those close to them (perhaps subtly, perhaps not), typical to such a person. From the detachment and lack of relatability they often undergo social isolation and become more introspective and thoughtful. This is really the distinguishing factor, the paradoxically accelerated psychological and stunted social growth. If they are subject to typical modern education this may even lead to negative academic outcomes (mainly in the area between ~2.5 and 3 SD, with any higher intelligence academic failure is a near impossibility if they have any support network).
I can go on if you want but I reccomend reading about William James Sidis, Ted Kaczynski, Bobby Fischer, Leonhard Euler and Gauss. Also general literature on intelligence and genuises if you have genuine interest.
On a seperate note the genuises and most influential people within all fields and disciplines often are very sexually dimorphically brained males, and disproportionately come from rough backgrounds. (Missing parent(s), sickliness, general traumatic events).
I neglected to add in the first section the compounding effects of obviously having at the minimum reasonably intelligent parents (rarely if ever are they descended from an equally intelligent parent, due to the raw probabilities of being >3SD + see the breeder equation and trending towards the mean).

It does generally correlate, going up as IQ does, but it's not 1:1.
Any study done shows incredibly noisy data, so while correlation is there you can find just as many 90-110s with high salaries as 140+s with high salaries, simply because there are more of them to get lucky and get a big number in their bank account.

Bro this bait is delicious. I’m a slightly gifted midwit and my drug abuse and communication issues came from emotional instability caused by a bad upbringing and some bad luck genetics. After abusing my body and brain for years all I did was shave off a few iq points and waste a lot of fucking time being a victim and thinking it was cool to be a loser. It’s not. You either try or you’re not smart enough to try. Wallowing in self pity is something an immature and weak person does. Harden up because the world is something that defines you, not you define it. You evolved to navigate this existence and if you can’t then you should flake off and die. Don’t get me wrong I believe in everyone but if you don’t realize that the world is not here for your comfort and peace then I believe you are asking for hardship and pain

retard take with a low IQ example
not OP, but you are definitely a certified midwit and I maybe a midwit . But a high IQ chad (with little of pragmatism and sociopathy) should have a way more advanced pattern recognition system and problem-solving mechanism that make him surpass and make the inferior midwit seethe every time he challenge him and remind him of his place.

Your conception of high IQ seems to be based on the character Ozymandias in Watchmen, or perhaps that faggot Iron Man in the heckin Marvelverse.

That is what I meant. Compare whatever the chances are of someone percieving themselves to be high intelligence to the chance for a random sampled person to be high intelligence.

Not perfect, but superior. Memory's measured, homie. Just hoped the example of strongest mind having strongest memory would help.

My theory based on having been around a lot of high IQ people of all ages, is that having a high IQ provides a constant stream of validation and feeling of being right and the ability to win any argument regardless of your stance.
This impedes the development of pro-social behavior in individuals, fixing their personal flaws and prevents them from learning how to fit into society.
So if you are predisposed to being a shitty person in some way (being lazy, narcissistic, psychopathic, loner), you will probably never face an in-person challenge, but people will still dislike and avoid you behind your back.
It also prevents you from having earnest discussions with people around you.
So in short, if you are a relatively well-adjusted person, and you are either content with having a partner who's not your intellectual peer, or manage to find one, you will become a successful normie with somewhat obscure interests and a small circle of friends.
Otherwise you will either become a recluse, a narcissistic person with an circle of admirers or a Don Quixote who believes himself to be just that, but is actually held in contempt by everyone.

Because fast talkers are not in the business of actually making logically consistent arguments, they're just throwing out plausible sounding arguments faster than the opponent can deconstruct them. None of them argue in good faith. Their business is just as much rhetoric as making points.

But that is statistically true. Being depressed or schizo or whatever makes your brain work wrong. You'd perform much better if you were of sound mind.

Mensa Norway actually underestimates iq. People who take legit ones often get higher scores. If they didn’t cheat.

I am EXTREMELY intelligent. I consistenly score 130-140 on the online test that has the same exact answers and questions each time. I’m so smart that each time I do it I’m a little bit better than last time I did it, because the answers are stored in my gigantic memory system. One downside to being so intelligent is having to read threads like these where some generalise an extremely varied group of people into psychological diagnoses that can equally exist in all the other different groups of people.

Depends on where your talent lies. If you have a high IQ that renders you a genius in math and physics, you might end up lonely. If your talent lies in business, your high IQ might lead you to fabulous success and many connections with other people, limiting your loneliness. There is more to happiness/sadness than IQ. There are a number of genetic factors relating to personality, character, and mental stability that play into your level of happiness. You can be a super genius and miserable as a result of genetic predisposition to depression. You could also be a genius and normal with respect to your level of happiness. All depends.
