Avoid common pitfalls that can fuck you over.

Want to avoid poverty? Go into medicine/heathcare, engineering, actuary work or military. Note that this about avoiding poverty do not confuse this with what you want to personally indulge/ be interested in subject wise.

Want to avoid bias? Study up on all the different cognitive fallacies that exist and be aware of not practicing them.

Want to avoid personal violation? Familiarize yourself with the laws of your country and the psychological methods others can use to manipulate you.

Want to avoid health issues? Become active, eat healthy, learn how to best treat your body. Learn both the optimal and sub-optimal nutrients then plan around that.

Want to avoid bad relationship or social regression? Communicate. Learn how to communicate in any given environment even if the environment is actively hostile. Keep a cool head but do not let environment or it's actors mistreat you. Sometimes walking away rather than immediately confronting a problem is the best solution because it gives you time to strategize how to resolve it.

Want to avoid bad mates/partners? Do all the above, then look for someone who does at least 3 to 4 out of the 5. Not everyone is perfect but striving for one's personal best involves a lot of these traits.

First and foremost, do not automatically assume you're retarded, especially based on something as trivial as skin color. There are unfortunately a lot of racists in the world who will try to shit on you, but you can most definitely prove them wrong.

Also >>9964503 is spot on. A lot folks, regardless of race, make decisions based on emotions. Don't do that, always take some time when making a decision and always keep cool. That's honestly the number one thing in my opinion that fucks people over. You've got this anon.

You should figure out your strengths and weaknesses, and then work on focusing on a career that utilizes your strengths while at the same time improving your weaknesses on your own time.

Also, your race has nothing to do with being mentally handicapped. The only people who spread that shit on here are racist cucks who try to push their shit onto someone else by making them feel inferior. Some of the world's greatest minds were black.

There's actually a really simple way to find out, most people just aren't honest enough for it. Here's how you do it.
Picture a 3D six-sided dice in your head, close your eyes if it's easier for you to do it that way (it can be any kind of cube with each side being different, you can assign each side with a different colour for example). Now rotate the dice in your head.
If you had difficulty doing this or couldn't keep track of the sides while rotating the dice, you're definitely below 120 IQ, i.e, retarded. (if you're completely unable to form pictures in your head, then this test doesn't apply to you.)

The average admixture for black Americans is 20% Eurasian. That being said 9/10 of that list is easily more African than Katherine Johnson from hidden figures. So there's no way to mistake them for anything other than being black.

Several of them as you can tell from their names are directly from Africa specifically around Nigeria. The economist Nobel's parents are carribean which is easily more black concentrated. Guys like Jerry Lewis and Charles Tunner literally look like literally who black people in a grocery store. The most of the people in that list do not look heavily admixed.

Not OP. I got 120 IQ in that test. But that's not saying much. I felt somewhat stressed when doing it since I've done that imagining cube and rotating while remembering position of faces. But maybe some people get stressed and they'd do far less well. If they weren't stressed, perhaps they'd get +10.

IQ over large groups isn't so inaccurate. The problem is determining intelligence of specific individuals. There are too many factors that IQ can't take into account. Factors that may be irrelevant over groups like races. For example, stress. An individual can be stressed out and this would be a negative but an entire group representing a general population won't necessarily be stressed. Those factors become less significant when dealing with entire groups.

It's like trying to figure an individual's sexual orientation (assuming you only have to guess if they are homo or heterosexual). It's much easier to have a better guess at wondering how many homosexuals makeup a general population, which is less than 10%. And if you look at the stats, you'd figure it's about 3% and you can be 95% sure that it's true. But can you be 95% sure that a specific random individual is gay or not gay? That's much harder to know because when reduced to the individual. It sounds counter intuitive but it's easily demonstrated with simple experiments.

Generalizations are easier to make because you only have to be right most of the time about the various members of that group. When you make a prediction about a certain individual, you can only be right once.

This is but one of many papers that is an example of the difficulty of assessing individuals vs groups.

I highly doubt it would be even close to equivalent given that the US is one of the most racially diverse nations in history. And there were obviously subsaharans in Egypt, they interacted frequently with Nubia, but that doesn't mean that they weren't- IN GENERAL- a non-white caucasoid like the current population of Egypt and most of the middle east. There are cool African nations in history you don't have to latch on to a country that happened to be on the same continent as your "ancestral home" to feel a sense of cultural/racial pride. A better thing to do besides taking racial pride is it take pride in yourself by making your own accomplishments instead of patting yourself on the back for the work of people who aren't related to you and lived 5000 years ago.
