A few years ago, the Ohio State researcher came out with a study showing that obese members of the boomer generation tended to have half the net worth possessed by boomers of normal body mass.
Now Zagorsky has explored another aspect of wealth:
Does High IQ = High Net Worth?
His findings: Income rises with IQ, but wealth doesn't seem to. The slightly bright tend to have higher net worths than the geniuses. Perhaps geniuses forget to add to their savings.
Boomers with IQ's slightly above the norm also seem to do better paying off debts than either the impoverished dullards or the very bright. People with an IQ of 115 are least likely to have maxxed out their credit cards.
