If you could, would you sell your IQ points?

[FlyGuyOU]

This is a debate several severs at my job have been discussing.
If it was possible to sell an IQ point would you? lets say they will give you $1000 per point.

How many would you sell?

And yes everyone has different IQs so some people could obviously afford to get rid of more before becomming an idiot, but still.

Of course NOT! Being intelligent is priceless!
Would you sell your hands, your eyes, or your legs for any amount of money?

But... if anyone were interested in selling me their IQ points, maybe we can get a deal... even cause someone dumb enough to sell IQ would be very easy to fool...

No way! I need them both!

Here are the old IQ Range Classification terms, no longer used:

70-80 Borderline deficiency
50-69 Moron
20-49 Imbecile
below 20 Idiot

So, if you start out with an IQ of 119, you could make 100,000 if you are willing to become an idiot.

Seems that there are a lot of people with IQ's of 119 and above that already ARE "idiots". :thumbsup:

I'd sell the ones from 1 up until about 130, I don't really use them much anyway.

We already knew that.

Ahh the fine line between self-deprecating humor and insults seems to fall somewhere past about that 130 mark...

[McLeodGanja]

Ahhhhhhh it was a joke was it! I didn't pick up on that one, probably since as i say I don't use my lower IQ points so much.

[THClord]

If the price was 100k per point, I might sell a couple, but not under that.

no, straight up lol
