You know, having a high IQ can lead you to having hundreds of ideas of increasing your wealth, on the other hand it can also lead to hundreds of ideas of spending it. Do you need high IQ to be successful? Having a high IQ doesn’t always equal to success.
Thanks for pointing out the good side of low IQ. It never comes across my mind. Less sprouting ideas lead to better focus.

I agree with Sam that high IQ is necessary for creativity. There these 2 are in the same domain.

I guess EQ comes in when the targeted success requires dealing with people. Perhaps for success that does not require much interpersonal connections, EQ may not be something too relevant.

Talking about IQ score, i havent take one before. Can anyone suggest any website that provide such test?
