IQ and pay are not related

[sz4kerto]

They're correlated. The correlation is not 1, of course, but definitely positive. (Won't provide references -- there's plenty on the internet.) People in the bottom 30 percentile earn way less than people in the top 30.

I dunno why this is such a hard concept for people to understand

Imagine you want to earn money and thus you need learn a skill. Which would earn you more money: learning to code or learning to stock shelves.

Those people would argue that learning to code has nothing to do with IQ.

learning to code or learning to weld? Highly skilled work is highly paid work.
