Success: What is it and does a high IQ help?

Success: What is it and does a high IQ help? There is a perception that intelligence, as measured by an Intelligence Quotient test will lead to success and ultimately, happiness. However, for decades scholars, educators and scientists have debated the validity of these tests. The human brain possesses neuroplasticity which allows for tremendous change and the rapid formation of neural pathways, which facilitate learning. As people age, neuroplasticity wains and pathways are pruned. If a skill is no longer practised, it is lost. IQ fluctuates over time. A child prodigy may not be a genius (according to test criteria) at middle age. Some would say that the Emotional Quotient is a much more important indicator of success. The ability to connect with people, empathise and show compassion can have a tremendous impact on an individual’s life. Alistair Duff writes for FirstRand Perspectives as he delves into what leads to true fulfilment, which could be called the ultimate success. – M

Fraud in first class - Anna Delvey s crimes

Anna Vadimovna Sorokina’s extraordinary story reads like of fanciful work of fiction. A tale of a small-town girl, building a brand new life for herself when she moved to a new country. In fast-paced New York, Anna gave herself a new name and fabricated massive wealth by taking advantage of the generosity and pride of other well-off New Yorkers.

This story first appeared on FirstRand Perspectives. – Melani Nathan
