Center for the Advancement of Health — By following nearly 1,000 subjects
during a 70-year span, Scottish researchers have found that people with
high IQs who reside in poor neighborhoods lived longer than people in
similar areas with low IQs, while the intelligence score was not important
for longevity for people living in wealthy neighborhoods.
This is really
good news for teachers. If you had to pick one profession to epitomize
the twin adjectives "smart" and "poor", it’s us. Unfortunately,
most of us are counting on Social Security to get us through our elongated
golden years, so maybe we aren’t so smart after all…
