Hence the reason I asked this question.

People with unknown IQs self are more known than him and have added visible contributions to the world at large. One thing na to get gift, another na to use am well.

“Society should not judge anyone with unilateral standards. Everyone has different learning levels, hopes, talents, and dreams, and we should respect that .” - Kim Ung -Yong.
He is happy the way he is. Why are you trying to call his happiness a failure!

STOP WATCHING TOO MUCH OF NOLLYWOOD MOVIES
I've never seen any nollywood movie talk about reincarnation and besides, I watch Korean dramas. You can't learn anything from nollywood movies.

Yes, I stumbled upon the full story of this man just now and I recant my statement. I think living your dream which he seems to be doing now is the best.

Dunno... Creating something? undecided I guess it's better not to label someone based on his/her IQ. I'm sure he enjoys teaching.
Re: Kim Ung-yong, The Man Who Scored The Highest IQ Ever As A Kid by somehow: 2:16pm On Jan 03, 2018
Achebe was known as a good writer, wole soyinka is known globally for a course, these are just 2 few smart people, now what is he known for? He teaches but is he a stand out teacher known all over the world?

Albert Eistein (got the spelling wrong) was also known as a math guru (I believe)

what i like about america is that they keep picking the best brains world wide. and make use of them. like king Nebuchadnezzar that picked the brilliant kind from Israel and Cyrus who chooses Daniel.
...América does not force any good goods into their count,but their good system,which is fostered by freedom of hood living is what is drawing them to the US..and I say all Muslims who saw the UAE,istanbul,saudi arabia,egypt,kuwait,oman ans still choose to go sourjoun,in the US or other European nation's are BIG HYPOCRITE..the worst is that they already know their way of life and still go there to claim abuse of right....

why are confusing high IQ with being famous? there are many famous people who are not smart and there are many smart people who are not famous , that does not remove anything from them. today people applaud Steve jobs for revolutionizing smart phones but how many people know the talented engineers who did all the work behind the scene?

also many people know the first man to land on the moon but how many people know the various engineers and mathematicians who did the complex calculations that made the journey possible?

wheres he now? if hes not a billionaire then...
typical Nigerian, everything has to boil down to money. you don't need to be "book smart" to make money, most of the top billionaire today are not geniuses, they are more of dreamers who then hired geniuses to build their dreams. as a matter of fact sports or musical talent is likely to fetch u more money than a high IQ, except you have the ability to have big dreams along with the IQ.
