Intelligence is highly correlated with income. Ken Jennings has won more money on television game shows than any other human being–over three million dollars. He was defeated just twice on Jeopardy: in 2004 by Nancy Zerg, and in 2011 by an IBM computer named Watson. (In response to being beaten by a machine Jennings graciously said, “I for one welcome our new computer overlords”).
