Decades ago, a friend of mine called Mensa the "Society for Overintelligent Underachievers".
Yes. I have said the same thing for years. Underachiever club that sits around solving pointless puzzles etc. instead of real-world problems
On the plus side, useful cite to send anyone trying to argue that something can be learned from a Mensa sample: no, utterly unrepresentative
It can be shown empirically too. If one asks Mensans for income etc, the implied r with IQ will be less than what good samples find.
