Hey! Thoughty2 here.
How many friends do you have?
If the answer is one or two, or maybe even not at all, then you could be an extraordinarily intelligent person, possibly even genius-level.
Even that or you're a massive gentleman's pickle.
Psychologist Satoshi Kanazawa of the London School of Economics measured their happiness levels of 15,000 people with various IQ levels.
He measured the happiness of all the subjects on two occasions, once whilst they were socializing with a group of friends and then again when they were completely alone.
What the results showed was that for people with low to average intelligence levels, you know those with the combined brainpower of the Beckham's reported greater self-happiness when they spent time with friends and it seemed that the more friends they had, the happier it made them.
But astonishingly, The exact opposite was true for people with very high intelligence levels – they reported greater happiness when alone.
In fact, it was noted that those at the top end of the intelligence spectrum, actually felt considerably less happy when spending time with friends.
Some theorize this is because intelligent individuals are more skeptical of others, they are more able to see the faults inherent in humankind and so prefer to not get tangled up in the blues of their unpredictable and unreliable brethren.
