There’s a guy at my car repair shop who seems pretty clearly to have an IQ above 150 I think about this often

I remember reading a study years ago that showed a high correlation with physical labor or unemployment and a 150+ IQ. No idea if that's true now (or even then) though.

It’s not like they’re everywhere, but you definitely come across them semi regularly.I personally owe it to a customer of mine, who also ended up being my orthopedic surgeon later, for getting me out of the trades. He wouldn’t let it go that I should be doing more and even invested in me going back to school

Reminds me of this hyperpolyglot Tyler Cohen interviewed. He speaks dozens of languages and works for his brother’s carpet cleaning business. https://conversationswithtyler.com/episodes/vaughn-smith/
