Yeah, aware of their beef on IQ and big 5. Both have antithetical views about it. I am somewhere in the middle, like Taleb I don't think IQ is unscientific and baseless.

Correlation between IQ and wealth accumulation is positive. You even live longer if you high IQ. But that can be due to correlation-causation fallacy, though I doubt that. But again, my ideas on IQ are still at their infancy and I'm looking forward to learn more about it.

On big 5, I have read the papers, the data is strong on that side.
