well not really no. Look at that 150 IQ example and his inability to get girls.
"Since Im the smartest I can get nearly any girl" right? wrong. Same here.
in my catfishing fun I come across many incels some of whom are extraordinary intelligent yet cant get girls. Some of them probably also cant figure it out; why is it that they are 25-30 and still virgin.
It looks like you feel
entitled to power simply because you think that you are the smartest.
In my opinion those who have been blessed with extra brain power are usually divided in two categories: those who admire their own brilliance and those who actually
use it. Lets imagine its as black and white; at least in this example while in reality its obviously very greyish.
Admiring your own brilliance can be quite an interesting activity I agree but it doesnt get **** done.
If you want power then all you have to do is
use your self proclaimed superior intelligence to take it

There are many ways to take power, some of which are quite rare while others are common. Again lets discuss some very basic things about taking power. For the purpose of simplicity lets narrow it down to 2 ways: the Jedi way and the Sith lord way. (thats where the reference to the movie ends).
PS. one of the most unusual ways to get power is when it happens by "accident", one of the most notorious examples in history is the story of Napoleon Bonaparte who got power brought to him on a silver plate. Out of nowhere. Then he abused it to wage all kinds of expansionist wars where millions died and France got invaded. Yet contrary to Hitler he is buried in the center of Paris and you have to look down (to bow lol) for him to see his grave.. Obviously such things are rare.
The Jedi way: the predictable boring way. The Jedi way is when you improve yourself and work very hard so that people acknowledge you for your wisdom and seek your advice which they find mostly valuable.
PS. in most private companies the Jedi way doesnt work; in fact it turns you into a useful idiot. Neither does it make you wealthy. In fact such people in private companies are usually overqualified and are free of such amazing things like ambitions or have no social skills to get higher.
And then there is the Sith way lol, where you can get on top in no time at all or become a grey cardinal which is even better because having some puppet as a leader is as good as it gets in any group

I will give some advice about the Sith ways later and it "always" works lol; irl, online etc.
