what is the point of having high IQ?
it is believed that high IQ make you a better person.
it is also believed that high IQ get you more score in a test in school.
but what does it make you a person after leaving the school.
in real life, there is finited of everything resource, what does high IQ help the reality?

source, please?
why should I believe you?
go back to your base
let me know how do you think.
Your post is quite vague, and in many ways confusing.
There's zero evidence that high IQ would make you "better person", even though you don't even specify what you mean by that.
Having high IQ measures that people with high IQ people are good at performing IQ tests.
If it's Mensa test for example, it measures how you can detect patterns and sequences in these tests, which could indicate that you can most likely apply these skills to real life as well, and apply them to some skills if you have any.
Your 100 apple situation isn't a reliable indicator either, because it's usually people
without high IQ are the ones that assume, that people with high IQ would always pursue for maximum profit. Poeple with high IQ aren't necessarily selfish or greedy. They can have good people skills and emphathy. Many high IQ people can choose to live moderately.
And speaking of that, there are many kinds of fields in intelligence. Many people that would perform well in tests that are measuring general cognitive abilities, are not doing so well with their lives. It can lead to lonely or unproductive life if you have other issues that you need help with, or don't have skills in other areas of intellect.
