This is my opinion only:

IQ IMO is overrated - i think it helps with ease of learning - but i think it's far overstated.

My dad's iq was like 102 or something - but he could build things that were awesome - he built a trailer for a bulldozer with no blueprints that was DOT approved -

Then my one Ex GF has an iq of 188 and i think she doesn't understand the stove is hot - but she can do calculas in her head.

IQ and common sense are not related (at least not that I have observed).

what's sad is

this has already been posted along with snopes discrediting it b4 on this forum

I guess the person who posts it must be in one of the lower ends of the IQ scale
