Its simple.
low IQs work the oil rigs, do the trades, own farms, etc...
and make mad dosh, you know the working class.
And high IQs do professions like doctors, STEM, etc...
Midwits on the other hand read books and wonder why the working class isn't upset like they are.

I'm minoring machine learning. I'm not fond of data analysis though. Economics fascinated me with game theoretic models and in machine learning I'm mostly interested in GANs and reinforcement learning. Probably will try to go for masters degree where I can decently study these fields.

I studied English and East Asian Studies and became a high school teacher.

I like my STEM-bound students and future MBA's

I'm 34 now and I can't even imagine not doing what I do now. My job makes me happy. I make enough money.

But, since I was fat up till 16 y/o, I can imagine being so insecure that I needed to divide the entire world into winners and losers based solely on what I want to believe about myself.
