Do bold people have higher IQs?

Answer 1

There may be an inverse relationI recall reading an article in the New York Times that suggested an inverse relation between IQ and "boldness," or risk-taking. Highly intelligent people frequently have the foresight to envision all that can go wrong with a project or an endeavor, become intimidated and daunted, and fail to act. There also seems to be an inverse relation between IQ and self-evaluation; that is, people with lower intellects overestimate their ability, whereas people with high IQ tend to underestimate themselves, becoming, in a sense, their own worst critics and becoming discouraged by their self-criticism and doubt. Boldness and Higher IQ's?Not always the case. Confidence is nothing to do with intelligence, and some of the greatest thinkers have been solitary, lonely people. For example, there are Isaac newton and Albert Einstein. It's built inI believe that "bold" people have that personality trait built in. They tend to be more aggressive (not a negative term) towards life and all their endeavors. They are driven people, sometimes because of their lack of superior intelligence. The outcome of a person's life is the person and not the brain. No connectionBeing bold, bald, old, and other such characteristics having little to do with indentifying intelligence levels.

Prisons are full of people that did something bold, not intelligent, to arrive there.

On a similar note......

"Never confuse IQ with W2." One does not necessarily have anything to do with the other.

NoteThe motto of the SAS is: Who dares wins.

However, it has jokingly been changed to: Who plans wins.

I am not sure exactly but the normal American IQ is 98
