Transcripts
first of all you need to know them for
your own life because you ought to know
that there are differences intelligence
it's really important if you go into a
job and you're not smart enough for that
job you're gonna have one bloody
miserable time and you're gonna make
life wretched for the people around you
because you won't be able to handle the
position and as you climb hierarchies of
competence the demand on fluid
intelligence increases and so unless you
want to fail you don't put yourself in
over your head
well what's over your head well that's a
tricky thing to figure out I mean you
have to figure that out with
intelligence you have to figure it out
with conscientiousness you have to
figure it out with creativity you have
to figure out with stress tolerance with
agreeable Ness because you want to go
into a cooperative environment and not a
competitive one if you're agreeable and
with neuroticism you what could probably
want to keep the stress level of your
job relatively low because those are all
places that you can break down and most
people have at least one significant
weakness in their intelligence
personality makeup and you've got to be
careful not to place yourself in a
position where that's going to be a
fatal flaw but what you really want to
do as far as I can tell if you want to
maximize your chances for both success
and and let's say well-being is you want
to find a strata of occupation in which
you would have an intelligence that
would put you in the upper quartile
that's perfect then you're a big fish in
a small pond and you don't want to be
this you don't want to be the stupidest
guy in the room it's a bloody rough
place to be so and you probably don't
want to be the smartest guy in the room
either because what that probably means
is you should be in a different room
right you should look at a place where
if you're right at the top it's you've
mastered it it's time to go somewhere
where you're a little lower so that
you've got something to climb up for so
and I can if you're not hyper
conscientious for example you're
probably not gonna want a job that you
have to work 70 hours a week at because
you're just not wired up that way you'd
rather have some leisure and like more
power to you if that's how you're wired
up there's nothing wrong with having
some leisure but if you're someone who
can't stand sitting around doing nothing
ever then maybe you can go into a job
that's going to require you to work 75
hours a week and almost all jobs that
are at the top of complex dominance
hierarchies require very high
intelligence and insane levels of
conscientiousness as well generally
speaking as pretty day
high levels of stress tolerance you know
because that can knock yo - because
there's going to be sharp fluctuations
in your career generally speaking at the
higher levels of a structure and you
have to make very complicated decisions
often with very short time horizons so
you have to decide if that's what you
want so okay so how smart do you have to
be to be different things in life well
if you were have an IQ of a 116 to 130
which is 85th percentile and above so
it's one person an eighth up to one
person in 130 I believe is 85 90 95 is
it 95 I think it's 95 one person aid to
one person in 20 then you can be a
attorney a research analyst and editor
at advertising manager a chemist and
engineer and executive manager etc
that's that's the now that's not the
high end for IQ by the way you know that
it can go up well I can go up
indefinitely although there's fewer and
fewer people as it goes up so if you
want to be the best at what you're doing
Bar None then having an IQ of above 145
is a necessity and maybe you're pushing
160 in some situations and maybe that's
making you one person in 10,000 or even
one person in a hundred thousand and
then also to really be good at it you
probably have to be reasonably stressed
tolerant and also somewhat conscientious
so you know people well you think well
why is it that smart people are at the
top of dominance hierarchies and the
answer to that in part is because they
get there first
right I mean everything's a race roughly
speaking and the faster you are the more
likely you are to be at the forefront of
the pack and intelligence in large part
is speed that's not all of it is so if
you're moving towards something
difficult rapidly the faster people are
going to get there first
so IQ of 115 110 to 115 so that's 85th
to 73rd to 85th percentile copywriter
accountant manager sales manager sales
analyst general manager person
purchasing agent registered nurse Sales
Account Executive if you look at
universities the smartest people are
they're above this who are the smartest
people at university what do you think
mathematicians
assists and mathematicians right right I
could tell you who's on the other end
but I won't yeah I'd like to though
anyway anyways okay
going down the now 103 to 108 is
slightly above average rate 60th to 70th
percentile store manager bookkeeper
credit clerk lab test your general sales
telephone sales accounting clerk
computer operator customer service rep
technician clerk typist so you see at
this level people are people have some
technical skill and some ability to deal
with complex things okay that's dead
average 100 is average dispatcher in a
general office police patrol officer
receptionist cashier general clerical
inside sales clerk meter reader printer
teller data entry electrical helper 95
to 98 machinist food to partner manager
Quality Control checkers security guard
unskilled labor maintenance arc welder
die setter mechanic good-good IQ range
for relatively qualified trades people
87 to 93 messenger factory production
worker assembler food service worker
nurse's aide wear host Minh custodian
janitor material handler Packer now what
you're seeing what you're starting to
see is that as he moves down the
hierarchy the jobs get simpler they're
more likely to be assigned by other
people or they're repetitive because
what IQ predicts to some degree is how
rapidly you can learn something but once
you've learned it it doesn't predict how
necessarily how well you do at it and so
the more repetitive jobs ten people with
lower IQs are more suited to more
repetitive jobs under 87 is there
something well no right that's a big
problem and it's something our society
has not addressed at all jobs for people
with IQs of less than 85 are very very
rare so what the hell are those people
supposed to do it's like 1 it's 15% of
the population what are they supposed to
do well we better figure it out because
one of the things that's happening too
is that as the as the high IQ tech geeks
get a hold of the world the demand for
cognitive power is increasing not
decreasing
you want to be a teller well you know
those checkout machines they're not so
simple you want to work at McDonald's
you think that's a simple job you don't
see robots working at McDonald's and the
reason for that is that what McDonald's
workers do is too complex for for robots
to do so well so this is a discussion
that no one wants to have but that's
okay it's still a problem and it has to
be dealt with so the US government I
think I told you this at one point
already it's illegal to induct anyone
into the US Army if they have an IQ of
less than 83 right it's about 10% of the
population because the US Army that and
they've been doing IQ testing since IQ
testing began because they want
everybody they can possibly get into the
army because in peacetime they use it as
a way of moving people up the
socio-economic ladder and in wartime
well obviously you need as many soldiers
as you can get your hands on and so
you're not going to be any pickier then
you have to be so when the US Army says
it's illegal to induct anybody into the
Armed Forces if they have an IQ of less
than 83 then you know that they've done
it for absolute necessity right and when
people have made a finding that
contradicts what they want to hear and
they're doing it out of absolute
necessity you can be reasonably true
that it's one of those facts that just
won't bloody well go away and so you
might think well if there's nothing for
someone with an IQ of less than 83 to do
in the army what makes you think that
there's something that they can do in
the general population and then the
issue is you know because the
Conservatives will say well they should
just work harder it's like sorry that
ain't going to fly and the Liberals will
say well there's no difference between
people anyhow and you can just train
people to do everything and that's wrong
so they're both wrong and they're
seriously wrong and the fact that
neither side of the political
perspective will take a good cold hard
look at this problem means that we're
going to increasingly have a structural
problem in our societies because we're
complexify 'never ething so rapidly that
you can't find employment unless
increasingly unless you're intelligent
you guys are really going to face this
you know lawyers are disappearing like
mad and the reason for that is you can
look it up online increasingly you can
do things yourself if you're smart and
so like the working class people
being wiped out pretty nicely over the
last 30 years by by automation and
various other things it's the low end of
the white collar class that's coming up
next so I'm not saying that lower
lawyers are in the low end but low end
lawyers are in the low end of the white
collar class so there's still going to
be plenty of positions for people who
are creative and fast on their feet and
super smart in fact those people are
going to have all the money and that's
already happening to a great degree
