a lot of jewish people live in countries as minorities. they help each other a lot. the communal unity is the principal reason why they rise up in society. they are also hard workers, and emphasise education and learning.
What? I've heard this "Jewish help other Jewish people" thing only from non-Jews, and when they say that, I tell them that's not in the least true. Why? Because it isn't. Some Jewish something or another helping Jews. Where is this? What is this group or whatever? I'll tell you it's name. Nonexistant. I'm a Jewish failure. Nobody helped me even a bit. A lot of mental illness comes with intelligence. A lot of Jews were raised by wounded people, dealing with generational trauma. Doesn't create intelligence. Jews are born with high IQs. Genetic. Still, those who thrive thrive despite their circumstances.
Im Jewish, i don't consider my 'people' more intelligent . Im not sue that that's true. Im not a rich super achiver but.... I can say, there's a big emphasis on education and family in Jewish culture.
@@zhafi15o yes I live in Israel, people would be shocked at how not rich this country is, whatever their beliefs about Jews are.. Our airport is nice and simple and I like it. ( Unlike Dubai airport which is a city and wants to show off ) .
Because they stick together and raise their children to succeed by providing them with the tools for success. I'm an Anglo originally from the UK and am an example of the opposite. My horrible English parents couldn't be bothered to raise me nor my brothers to succeed. We basically had to grow up on our own with zero guidance.
As a jew, and a religious jew, i believe the urge to show gods name in the world is the best motivation one can get, and when you do it from a pure and loving care for the other nations, it represents itself. Also people dont understand how deep the torah goes, and to learn it, it takes a whole lot of thinking and a lot of wisdom.
Main reason is they do business with each other and favor other Jewish businesses. Also they use charities to support their community. They are extremely well organized as rich Jews donate money to Jewish organizations, tax-deductible. What a commendable culture! I wish every group was like the Jews.
I am not Jewish but I have some indirect contact via my wife who moved from Japan to Cincinnati as a child. As an asian she took education seriously. There were very few asians there so she ended up in a class with mostly Jewish kids. Many people confuse IQ with intelligence. It is a measure of how well you will do in school, not intelligence. It is also heavily influenced by environment. In the case of asians and jewish people the expectations are that their children will do well in school They study harder. They learn more. They score higher on IQ tests. If we want the best for our kids we should model them instead of making excuses for our kids doing worse in school.
the most unsuccessful living nation on planet by any parameter, for last 3000 years... even in the last century, in ww2 even Japan receiving 2 atomic bombs suffered less than the "smart successful high IQ nation"... masters change, slaves --never.
The Talmud holds that only Jews are true human beings and Gentiles are “goyim” (meaning cattle or beast). The following are shocking but exact quotes from their various books. Sanhedrin 59a: “Murdering Goyim is like killing a wild animal.” Abodah Zara 26b: “Even the best of the Gentiles should be killed.” Sanhedrin 59a: “A goy (Gentile) who pries into The Law (Talmud) is guilty of death.” Libbre David 37: “To communicate anything to a Goy about our religious relations would be equal to the killing of all Jews, for if the Goyim knew what we teach about them, they would kill us openly.” Libbre David 37: “If a Jew be called upon to explain any part of the rabbinic books, he ought to give only a false explanation. Who ever will violate this order shall be put to death.” (They contest the previous two) Yebhamoth 11b: “Sexual intercourse with a little girl is permitted if she is three years of age.” Schabouth Hag. 6d: “Jews may swear falsely by use of subterfuge wording.” Hilkkoth Akum X1: “Do not save Goyim in danger of death.” Hilkkoth Akum X1: “Show no mercy to the Goyim.” Choschen Hamm 388, 15: “If it can be proven that someone has given the money of Israelites to the Goyim, a way must be found after prudent consideration to wipe him off the face of the earth.” Choschen Hamm 266,1: “A Jew may keep anything he finds which belongs to the Akum (Gentile). For he who returns lost property (to Gentiles) sins against the Law by increasing the power of the transgressors of the Law. It is praiseworthy, however, to return lost property if it is done to honor the name of God, namely, if by so doing, Christians will praise the Jews and look upon them as honorable people.” Szaaloth-Utszabot, The Book of Jore Dia 17: “A Jew should and must make a false oath when the Goyim asks if our books contain anything against them.” Baba Necia 114, 6: “The Jews are human beings, but the nations of the world are not human beings but beasts.” Simeon Haddarsen, fol. 56-D: “When the Messiah comes every Jew will have 2800 slaves.” Nidrasch Talpioth, p. 225-L: “Jehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is consequently an animal in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night.” Aboda Sarah 37a: “A Gentile girl who is three years old can be violated.” Gad. Shas. 2:2: “A Jew may violate but not marry a non-Jewish girl.” Tosefta. Aboda Zara B, 5: “If a goy kills a goy or a Jew, he is responsible; but if a Jew kills a goy, he is NOT responsible.” Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 388: “It is permitted to kill a Jewish denunciator everywhere. It is permitted to kill him even before he denounces.” Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 348: “All property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which, consequently, is entitled to seize upon it without any scruples.” Tosefta, Abda Zara VIII, 5: “How to interpret the word ‘robbery.’ A goy is forbidden to steal, rob, or take women slaves, etc., from a goy or from a Jew. But a Jew is NOT forbidden to do all this to a goy.” Seph. Jp., 92, 1: “God has given the Jews power over the possessions and blood of all nations.” Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 156: “When a Jew has a Gentile in his clutches, another Jew may go to the same Gentile, lend him money and in turn deceive him, so that the Gentile shall be ruined. For the property of a Gentile, according to our law, belongs to no one, and the first Jew that passes has full right to seize it.” Schulchan Aruch, Johre Deah, 122: “A Jew is forbidden to drink from a glass of wine which a Gentile has touched, because the touch has made the wine unclean.” Nedarim 23b: “He who desires that none of his vows made during the year be valid, let him stand at the beginning of the year and declare, ‘Every vow which I may make in the future shall be null’. His vows are then invalid..
Sorry @Stephenbird5472, but I think IQ measures a TYPE of intelligence. The abstract one. So it doesn't condemn anyone's general abilities, but it is still important, specially in modern societies in my opinion (STEM field activities).
In my point of prespective 1. Education Jewish people make alot of effort to get good education. Education and knowledge is the key to be succsesfull in life, and when you have it why not to aim high, position and power and so on. 2. Jewish people get married with Jewish people. it is a genetic thing, Preservation of features and It passes to the next generation. 3. The history of Jewish people. It effect on their mind consciousness or unconsciousness to survive.
doesn't make sense, we all know relative marriage leads to birth defects and bad mutation, that's why is better to marry someone faraway from the region you grew up in to enhance the gene pool
As for why Ashkenazi Jews have a higher IQ: 1. That culture used to be based on studying the holy books. Your success in life (including selection of mates) was dependent on being recognized as a scholar. Thousands of years of selecting for the best scolars (even if it's just holy books) will produce geniuses and then all you need to do is swap the holy books for real science 2. Jews in Europe were forbidden to own land and therefore they were forced to undertake service jobs: Doctor, dentist, lawyer, accountant, engineer... 3. Multiple near-extinction events killed a lot of the dull, complacent ones!
Excellent point about Jewish success being related to IQ. I would also say the fact that historically the majority of Jews have attempted to live ethically and according to their faith, is also a reason for their competency. Jewish people have a reputation for honesty and upright dealing which in my own limited experience from UK is true.My grandfather sold jellies in the period after the World War 2 and the Jewish community in Glasgow was very kind to him.
No it's because Jewish parents and grandparents wont stop being annoying and complaining. "Why aren't you a Loyaaaya Like ya Bradda?" "Mah I don't wanna be a Loaya!! I wanna be a Comic!!" "Oh Caaahmady Smahmady!!"
@@cheyennealvis8284Obviously, you’re not a successful individual and your relatives didn’t give a damn if you grew up to be an achiever. Lucky for you.
IQ? Lmao I know of another person who used to think his race had superior IQ to others, and history hasn't been kind to him (hope the same happens to zionism). No, jews are successful because they stick together and don't care about our common ethics, treating others outside their group like sh1ţ, and those are facts
My grandfather was German and Swedish...his military tested IQ was 144. He didn't have much money. Very intelligent but never considered himself more intelligent than others...you just knew it. He was a mechanic for military vehicles and taught auto mechanics in the military...invented a new braking system for Bradley tanks...instead of buying a starter for a car...he would take it apart and rebuild it for like 1 dollar 😂
Intelligent people express it in different ways. My cousin was trained in classical music. Was the music minister in our church and was a mechanic by trade and head of his city's motor pool. And an chess amateur champion.
@levantics Gen Z?😄 What are the queues that someone is kind-- if you never met them before? Honestly tell me because it could be autism or something that is stopping you from picking up those things if you struggle with that...im not being mean...im just saying some ppl can't pick up on those things.
@@janetprice85 Yes, Asians emphasise education but there are more outstanding Jews. I'm not even Jewish and I'm very critical of Israel and any generalisation is just that but there is a high proportion of very bright Jewish thinkers.
@@angelabrooke5059 Well, I have relatives who are Jewish so...I'm speaking from observations not guess work. As to being critical of Israel...I majored in History at the undergraduate level and my Dad was in WW2. Israel is the victim. Jews are the victims. History does not lie unless it is manipulated by antisemites.
I would say that the Jewish person who asked the question about Jews being over represented in positions of power and authority understood perfectly well why Jews are so successful in a range of areas in life. I would be interested to know what was said before he appeared to Jordan "to have an axe to grind". I wonder what Jordan had already said or omitted to say. If he is a Jew, he would know how his fellow Jews live, raise their children, eat, spend their time, about their faith, their history, the way they discuss, value debate, their clever humour, how much and how they study, and the types of rules they tend to live by. He would know how men help raise boys, and how girls are raised including the ways of developing the talents the child is born with. He would be very well aware of the important milestone that boys and girls (at the age of about 13) reach and all the meaning and responsibility involved with that transition into adulthood. He would also know how strong Jewish women are and how strongly and deeply elders are honoured and respected. He would be well aware of how creative and musical Jews would tend to be. He would be aware of how Jews have been forced to adapt to all the past eras of persecution, and alienation that Jews have been subjected to for so very many hundreds of years. He would know that through being unable to participate in various occupations in the past, Jews have adapted and become great at surviving financially in spite of all of that. He would also be more than capable of seeing the difference between Jewish lifestyles and those of many other nonJewish people he comes into contact with. It seems to me, that in the area of religion alone, Jews often have a clearer picture of biblical history than very many Christians. Other things worth noting relate to the entire history and belief that God had directed them thousands of years ago. These views and the Jews' incredible ability to survive when many other groups have disappeared, cannot be underestimated. Jews clearly tend to live very purposeful lives. That is a far cry from the many thousands of young men who listen to , write to and are inspired by Jordan Peterson to change their lives, "clean up their rooms", put their shoulders back and take responsibility. The Hebrew Bible is a lot deeper because Hebrew is the language it was written in at an earlier time. I don't think the Jew asked the question because he needed an answer. Perhaps, as a Jew, he wanted a bit more discussion and debate? Well, the narrowminded, angry views of people didn't make that possible. As Jordan Peterson points out, approaching the question on the basis of race has its limitations. I am surprised that "nurture" wasn't then discussed by Jordan. In fact, as Jordan has given many lectures on the bible and has looked fairly deeply ( although probably not as deeply as Jews have) at the "old testament". One thing I learned from Jordan is that these old stories are "truer than true". I have myself lived through things that remind me of Cain and Abel, and Joseph and his jealous brothers. So that is just one good example for me. I do believe though, that Jews have a far deeper understanding of this ancient wisdom than Jordan will have. I have certainly gained the impression that strong views, including antisemetism is live and well. "Being killed" is very strong language. I am not religious or Jewish, but I know enough about the incredible gifts of the Jews, as well as the teachings of Jeshua/ Jesus himself and other Jews after him. I was shocked, truly shocked recently to hear a percentage of people who believed that Jews caused the Holocaust. ??!!! I don't really know a lot about Jewish life, but if people still think that way about Jews, well that is a very disturbing indictment about the level of intelligence, knowledge and humanity in the population even after all our world has been through. It will be interesting to see the next thousand comments here. I hope people here will take an interest in this incredible, purposeful, strong, intelligent, talented, spiritual group of true survivors. I was listening to a very old recording of Bob Dylan recently. He was very young and was being very disrespectfully hounded by the press. He replied to one of them, "I wouldn't do that to you". Such a beautiful, pure response from a very young musician with such incredible talent. Such respect and honesty shown to an older person who frankly didn't deserve it.
A large percentage of Jews in the world actually know very little about their own culture and religion. Constant persecution and assimilation have sadly distanced them from their roots
Because G-d is ALL GOoDness & the holocaust certainly doesn’t seem to represent GOoDness & understanding that there are Divine Torah rules for Jews to choose to abide by…or not, & experience the consequences … 1 clear explanation about how WE Jews, ourselves, actually created this heart wrenching reality is illuminated in a manuscript by Rav Avigdor Miller called: A Divine Madness. His children had it published after his departure from this world. He wrote it decades earlier, leaving it in his drawer because of his sensitivity to the rawness of this national tragedy at the time. Knowing that WE are indeed responsible for our lives is empowering & the book helps us learn from our mistakes - when we choose to learn & GEZt the lessons!
Thank you. This made me cry. My grandparents were survivors and so much of what you said was instilled in me growing up. We are ultimately an ancient tribe of survivors and if my Oma and Opa survived THAT, then I can survive this.
@@annalouisepaul Kia ora e hoa, Hi Friend. 👋 I haven't seen this thread for a long time, and it's embarrassing to see how much I write! It's amazing if anyone reads it too. But you have really touched my heart. "Jewish in spirit" is a beautiful thought and there could be truth in it. I am a Jewish descendant. The Jews were in England and went to Australia in the 1800s where one built the first synagogue there in Hobart. I have very thick dark hair like my mother's. She called it her "Jewish hair". My girlfriend said that a lot of people in Israel have hair like mine. Several times when I have done things, she has basically said "that's because you are Jewish". I admire our Maori culture here in New Zealand very very much. One thing is that whakapapa (genealogy) is very important. The indigenous people know their whakapapa back dozens of generations, because it was memorized through a kind of chanting. How wonderful it must be to know your own history very well. It must instill a lot of strength and inspiration, like what our Maori people have inside them. I wish I knew where my Jewish ancestors came from before they went to London, or England. I guess there was intense persecution somewhere. I am very, very grateful that you read my comment and also replied, and with a perceptive view. You have prompted me to find out more, and also have a DNA test done. Tupuna (ancestors) are important to me and the ancient wisdom they have that we can learn from. I am on the lookout for ways I can honour my parents, grandparents who died before I was born, and great grandparents who came here from the other side of the world on the ocean. I am wondering more also, what I can leave for my children. I don't know much about Jews, apart from things I have picked up along the way. I wonder where you are in the world and what your background is. 🤔
I just like jews because they are intellectual people. They are very smart and resourceful. My poetry writing teacher was Jewish. I saw his library and I was floored. He had two rooms full of books. I love anyone who reads and who devotes themselves to thinking. Jews love to think.
Just an observation. Christian churchs have moved in mass from preaching how to conduct your life within biblical teachings to spending much more time on worship. Jewish synagogues still spend a lot of time on studying the proper way to conduct one’s life. It seems to me that with that change that Christian society is not gaining as much benefit as they used to from the bibles wonderful lessons.
Some observations: I have known quite a few Jewish people and families for many years. First. The parents tend to stay married. I can't recall a single divorce. Second the children are expected to do well in school and in life EXPECTED. Third, in a more general way having been discriminated against for centuries causes I believe, in a Darwinian "Survival of the fittest" situation where those who are the most intelligent tend to survive. Next, they have a tight culture. The fact that it is small helps. Another is the existence of the Bar and Bat mitvah experience. Many young people as a rite of passage have to prepare for a public display of their ability to recite FROM MEMORY extensive passages from the Torah and more. I have been to these and was impressed. Another expectation for them to study and prepare. Compare all that with the families in the "normal" non Jewish American family. Pretty easy to see why they excel. They WORK at it. Much can be said of the Chinese who I have known, as well as the Japanese.
This is a great comment but as someone who has probably been to 150 bar mitzvahs (and also had one) I have to say I’ve never heard of a kid having to memorize their Torah portion or Haftara. We spend years studying Hebrew so we can read them.
I had a Jewish roommate in graduate school. He was working on a Masters in order to go into a PhD degree. His brother was a lawyer and his sister was a doctor. He told me his parents said: "They would not pay for my schooling unless I earned a PhD in the subject and all I want to do is work in industry." His parents also constantly hounded him about his grades, which were not great.

It's not about intelligence at all. He needs to go deeper which he hasn't. It is about the ancient cultural drive for non-stop daily education including the habit of intense questioning. And this happens with all segments of Jews, not just with Ashkenazim. It's embedded as a way of transmitting values through generations and it starts very early in life
When I was a law clerk in 1987, the District Court Judge whom I was assigned, taught me something. We were discussing how many Vietnamese were shrimpers, how a case we had involved several families living in a house He quizzed me- What do u call 2nd generation Vietnamese? Then answered Valedictorians. Most people and socioeconomic groups are successful bc of work ethic.

I am profoundly impressed by the remarkable achievements of the Jewish people in Israel since 1948. They have transformed an arid desert into a flourishing paradise. Living in a region blessed with a temperate climate, we have much to learn from their innovative agricultural practices and dedication to cultivation. Their accomplishments are truly admirable, reflecting the extraordinary nature of this people.
Indeed, they succeeded in killing and displacing the indigenous people of the land (the Palestinians) and they are still killing and displacing them. It is a great act indeed, but it was not the work of the Zionist Jews alone, but rather it was originally the work of Western colonialism, British, French and American. Israel is an extension of Western colonialism in the region, and the Jews are merely tools in this Western colonialism. Israel is no different from America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa in this colonial settlement aspect, but those countries have abandoned the policies of killing, displacement and discrimination and have accepted the indigenous people as citizens in their state, but Israel still considers itself a state of the Jews only, while the indigenous people have either to be killed or displaced.

This👇 precisely is the reason for the success of Jewish people . Torah. Joshua 1:7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. And this is the proof that the above words work every single time For as the rain and the snow come. down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall Indian Hindu here. But absolutely believe in Torah and the God of the Bible.
At 2:38 "The average Ashkenazi has an IQ somewhere between 110 and 150. Which is about one standard deviation above the population average". That 150 should be 115 not 150. The standard IQ deviation is 15. The standard average IQ is 100. Also they are talking about Jewish IQ's and they're showing a bunch of Asians walking around. Weird.
I believe the standard IQ “Of College Graduates” is 100. Most newspapers are written to the 5th grade level so the population can read. General population is way below 100.
First of all, you must all understand that there are only 15 millions Jews in the world and millions are not overly successfull. Many are middle class and many too are poor. You might not see that so much in The US, but just go to Israel and I can promise that you'll see many poor Jews. Our successes, collectively that is, are rooted in one main thing, and that's our written tradition. Having texts to engage in and debate and argue about for 6000 has done something to us developmentallly and culturallly, over epochs and various places globally. Not many cutures as ancient as mine can claim the same.
@@angelabrooke5059 Yes, prehaps relative to our very low numbers in the world, but even the people you mention here fundementally owe thier successes to the fact that they are people from a culture that valued text. It's everything.
We have tons of poor Jews in the US but the tight community is a buffer. For example in my area there’s a huge Jewish summer camp and probably 40% of the kids have scholarships. There’s also highly Jewish Senior housing for poor seniors and a Kosher food bank.
@@angelabrooke5059 And so do mnay other ethnic groups angel, but yes, my peoeple are more successful relative to our small size of about.02% ot the total world population. And there is one main reason for this. It isn't that we are smarter or have super powers. The main reason is because our culture is steeped in written tradition, and less oral. Text demand reading and interperting and this alone has shaped us for 1000s of years.
@@ls6720 ... It's so crazy to me that so many people automatically plug us all as being wealthy. I'm Jewish and I am so far from being wealthy it's insane.
In Europe, for centuries Jews were not allowed to own land or work in trades ran by the guilds. This limited their options in making a living. Add to that the fact that the Church did not allow Christians to become money lenders, so the Jews stepped in and filled the gap and a few went on to become well to do or even wealthy. The royals and aristocracy knew where to come for money when they needed it, creating a mutually beneficial system, encouraged by the ruling class. It did benefit a few, however the vast majority of Jews continued to live in great poverty well up to WWII.
@@Linda-k7eyou have the broad contours right but it was highly variable depending on the region and time - the pendulum would swing back from various forms of persecution, expulsion, being put in ghettos, pogroms etc - and yes in between there were the rights to do the “allowed” jobs deemed too uncivilized for the ruling class. Money lending had its dark sides too as the Jews were also targetted the second the ruling borrowers couldn’t pay back their massive debts - which was another recurring theme

It's not that people don't understand statistics, its that people are easily radicalized and it is hard to convince them of anything that contradicts their beliefs after they are radicalized.
If any nation is exceptional it would be the Italians more than any other nation including the Jews. There is no match for a Michelangelo or a Leonardo da Vinci, just like there is no match for a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. No nation in the world has as many recognisable brands as the Italians do, just start with Nutella.
Visual arts (yeah I know Da Vinci did some technical designs as well, but those were speculative and mostly not realized), food and luxury brands are not the be all and end all. Jews are the ethnicity with the largest amount of nobel prizes, mainly in the hard sciences and maths (you know, the things scientific and technological process really rely on). They make up .2% of the world's population but have won 22% of Nobel prizes, meaning they outscore the average by about 100 times.
@@3rdEyeWide 22% of Nobel prizes for what, for inventing the light bulb, television, jet, diesel or petrol engines, radio, steam engine, telephone, washing machine, motor car, concrete or even hot water ? Most of those 22% of Nobel prize’s were awarded for theories like Einsteins theory while most of the worthwhile discoveries were made or invented by Germans, English, Italians and the French. Most of the greatest mathematicians were German and so were the classical music masters like Beethoven and Mozart, in food it’s the Italians and French and in sport the ones who really excel are the people of Africa and their descendants in America. I don’t think that anyone race or ethnic group is exceptional and that includes the Jews who themselves are more of a religious group rather than a ethnic one.
@@dantetomic7049 not so about being more religious than ethnic, you shouldn't' speak on behalf of others. There are plenty of secular (non-religious) Jews (like me) who identify culturally, not religiously.
What Peterson says is statistically true, provided the "right-skewness" and variance do not both decrease with a move in the distribution mean to the right. So if the right tail is the right tail focus, talk about the location of the mean is virtually meaningless.
Im not jew, but i admire judaism alot, i really believe that its the real religion of God, Jewish people are smart because they know the secrets of the universe, they study, pray, and worship God not for them to be saved or sum like that, but to earn knowlegde, wisdom and how to proceed well in their lifes, not only for them selves but also for the ones around them.
@@annalouisepaulThe answer is very clear... Jews have on average a higher IQ. This means they produce more Geniuses. We Draw leaders from the Tail-end i.e the extremes.... So Jews are more successful because they statistically produce more Geniuses.
Assuming a normal distribution across groups, a small shift of one curve in relation to another has minimal effects on differentiating people in the centre, however people on the tails of the curves will have a disproportionate representation. In other words, even though Ashkenazi Jews are one standard deviation higher than the typical 100IQ mean distribution, they will land up being greatly over represented at the very top of IQ holders, and therefore be over represented in the prestigious fields in which genius IQ is important. That is why Ashkenazi Jews are found in positions of power (across all political spectrums), but also across high finance, science, technology, classical music etc.
Jews are successful because Ashkenazis are intelligent on the whole along with nepotism and ethnocentrism. The tribal and ethnocentric communitarians will always overcome ‘rugged individualists’ and rootless cosmopolitans.
I agree. But once the individualist is pushed to a point of severe oppression from the communist ingroup all hell breaks loose and the game seems to reset and around and around we go. It’s always confrontational and historically violent.
The reason is simple. Because god chose the Jewish people to be leaders, to be a light upon the nations. One of the most fundamental requirements of leadership is intelligence. Also as an observat jew if you walk to my house or any hews house, you will find an unusually large library of both scripture and other books. Jews love to read and learn and work very hard.
my observation tells me IQ is definitely not the important factor when it comes to business or making money. I've seen people who could barely graduate from highschool, simply stupidly follow successful people's footpath and make millions a year. it's just a pure luck and number game. if people try hard enough for as many times as possible, there will be at least one time for them to hit the jackpot, and that changes it all, just like most youtubers say: it only takes you one video to get there.

Who ever will violate this order shall be put to death.” (They contest the previous two) Yebhamoth 11b: “Sexual intercourse with a little girl is permitted if she is three years of age.” Schabouth Hag. 6d: “Jews may swear falsely by use of subterfuge wording.” Hilkkoth Akum X1: “Do not save Goyim in danger of death.” Hilkkoth Akum X1: “Show no mercy to the Goyim.” Choschen Hamm 388, 15: “If it can be proven that someone has given the money of Israelites to the Goyim, a way must be found after prudent consideration to wipe him off the face of the earth.” Choschen Hamm 266,1: “A Jew may keep anything he finds which belongs to the Akum (Gentile). For he who returns lost property (to Gentiles) sins against the Law by increasing the power of the transgressors of the Law. It is praiseworthy, however, to return lost property if it is done to honor the name of God, namely, if by so doing, Christians will praise the Jews and look upon them as honorable people.” Szaaloth-Utszabot, The Book of Jore Dia 17: “A Jew should and must make a false oath when the Goyim asks if our books contain anything against them.” Baba Necia 114, 6: “The Jews are human beings, but the nations of the world are not human beings but beasts.” Simeon Haddarsen, fol. 56-D: “When the Messiah comes every Jew will have 2800 slaves.” Nidrasch Talpioth, p. 225-L: “Jehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is consequently an animal in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night.” Aboda Sarah 37a: “A Gentile girl who is three years old can be violated.” Gad. Shas. 2:2: “A Jew may violate but not marry a non-Jewish girl.” Tosefta. Aboda Zara B, 5: “If a goy kills a goy or a Jew, he is responsible; but if a Jew kills a goy, he is NOT responsible.” Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 388: “It is permitted to kill a Jewish denunciator everywhere. It is permitted to kill him even before he denounces.” Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 348: “All property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which, consequently, is entitled to seize upon it without any scruples.” Tosefta, Abda Zara VIII, 5: “How to interpret the word ‘robbery.’ A goy is forbidden to steal, rob, or take women slaves, etc., from a goy or from a Jew. But a Jew is NOT forbidden to do all this to a goy.” Seph. Jp., 92, 1: “God has given the Jews power over the possessions and blood of all nations.” Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 156: “When a Jew has a Gentile in his clutches, another Jew may go to the same Gentile, lend him money and in turn deceive him, so that the Gentile shall be ruined. For the property of a Gentile, according to our law, belongs to no one, and the first Jew that passes has full right to seize it.” Schulchan Aruch, Johre Deah, 122: “A Jew is forbidden to drink from a glass of wine which a Gentile has touched, because the touch has made the wine unclean.” Nedarim 23b: “He who desires that none of his vows made during the year be valid, let him stand at the beginning of the year and declare, ‘Every vow which I may make in the future shall be null’. His vows are then invalid..
your so correct !, Jewish communities are tight usually help each other and are driving in youth to educate one self to move forward in life, in any field available to us, however their are some cultures that don't help each other considers it a competition to recognize someone with higher qualifications , as other choose to live off the system and focuses on crimes to make life more convenient .
Well my comment has been removed by who I have no idea, it was neither rude, racist, bullying, or offensive, just my experiences and observations of living and working with Jewish people, I guess the truth is out there or perhaps it just hurts, Who knows.
In the bible we find that God choose ancient day Israelites as his chosen people and blessed them tremendously. I wonder if this relates in any way shape or form as to why even the modern day jew is so intelligent.
Really, for 3,800 years slaves only they learned the Power of interest on loans as money equivalent was only portable stuff. Semetic religions gave or took more from human race?

I read that of the avowed masterpieces of western visual and plastic art, 80% are in Italy or of italian origin. they also created the basis for modern science [da Vinci, Galileo], and most of the earlier masterpieces of western music. not bad.
Get a people , they read and write for 4000 years (Barmitsvahs) . They study passages , discuss spiritual aspects of it. As part of reading and writing they also learn numbers and maths .. hone that . Within those people intelligence is admired and encouraged. Add persecution and a constant awareness to survive …..
Well, look at the history of Jewish people in Eastern Europe. Even within poor families of the Stadel, knowledge of reading and writing was important, as the Torah was and is a key element of Jewish identity. A young jew grew up with knowledge of hebrew, as the language of the bible, within the family typically Jiddish was the language of communication. Then, the young jew, men and women, had to speak the local language, i.e. ucrainian, polish etc. As most of these regions were inhabited by people of different culture and languages, it was not unusual to speak several of the surrounding languages. Especially, if you had a profession like trade, which involved the necessity of communication. And many jews had some profession in trade as they were not allowed in farming or in traditional craft guilds. And, and top of that all, you needed to develop a character and skills to survive progroms, to withstand daily humilation and uphold your dignity. I think, that this is one of the reasons, why there were so many influential and sucessfull jews.
I highly admire the Jewish people for their success. But you are wrong when you contribute their success to their intelligence. From my extensive research, I confidently conclude that intelligence is NOT needed to be successful. The ONE KEY factor is HARD WORK, NOT intelligence.
@sarahcohen3844 I feel I am, but what's in Their best interest might not be in Our best interest as they are a minority and have extensive past experience on what can happen to minorities. Some of them might feel a Destabilized Majority is better for them. And that would absolutely be a totally rational and understandable decision based on those past experiences, but still not best for the rest of us.
Shouldn't we define what success means? Succcessful by whose standards? is there universal agreement on those standards?the generalization expressed by the title seems rather simpliistic and unsophisticated Is that a new category of individuals to be imitated? Is success a standard of behaviour we ought to abide by? Is success an ultimate goal? What should society do about un succcessful people? Are they disabled people?
Because they cooperate with other members of their tribe to the detriment of others. It's actually their religion. The British were highly successful for several centuries, far more successful than the jews ever were, and that success was attributable to an almost unbelievable standard of cooperation operating at all levels.
One wise man told asked me once, "What can you always have and nobody can steal it from you? WHat can you take with you everywhere and no customs can charge you for it?" The answer is simple, it is THE KNOWLEDGE. If you want to be sure that you can not just survive but succeed too, you must accumulate knowledge. Invest all the time you can into learning and you will be successful.
The most successful people in the 20th century, you mean. And then you have to be more specific as to 'where'. Also: not all success is beneficial to humanity.
Always amazed why Jews evoke so much interest from non-Jews. As my father used to say, if we are the chosen, next time G-D, please choose someone else! By the way, we never said we are the chosen. We said, we chose G-D. Happy New Year... 5785
The definition of race can be ambiguous and exact boundaries cannot be drawn between groups. That is a scientific problem but it is not a problem when you try to make a point about race.
for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people. Deuteronomy Chapter 4
When they lost the uprising in 64 y. , it was established , that every Jew must read the Torah, which meant that everyone should be in writing. And that's the reasn.
So much people these days are a mix of different races. But still a lot of people link individuals to just one race to keep it simple for themselves. Mostly on the basis of looks.
I think there are different types on intelligence - high IQ, common sense, and sneaky smarts (manipulation of the system or other people to benefit the manipulator). This later type has no character, integrity, honor, duty, responsiblity, their only allegence is to themselves and their tribe.
They just care about each other, only help out each other, and have a disregard for the host societies they live in and from which they drain all desirable resources. In that regard they don't act "scholarly" but simply materialistic.
Scientia Est Potentia, "Knowledge is power". It is also the one commodity that Others cannot steal from you. Jews learned early on from the many tragedies that befell Them, what is inside One's head is involate from One's enemies. Add to that the requirement of Their population to be literate, in order to discuss and understand Their Code of Laws written down in the Torah. As Hebrew is vowel less, not an easy language to master. Also two separate periods of introgression with H. neanderthal. Who bequeathed H.sapiens sapiens with a thick cortex.
As a critical thinker, Peterson should ask a few more questions, such as who developed the IQ test, are they Chomsky's colleagues? And, their sampling methods?
a lot of jewish people live in countries as minorities. they help each other a lot. the communal unity is the principal reason why they rise up in society. they are also hard workers, and emphasise education and learning.
they also discriminate harsly against anyone not jewish
What? I've heard this "Jewish help other Jewish people" thing only from non-Jews, and when they say that, I tell them that's not in the least true. Why? Because it isn't. Some Jewish something or another helping Jews. Where is this? What is this group or whatever? I'll tell you it's name. Nonexistant. I'm a Jewish failure. Nobody helped me even a bit. A lot of mental illness comes with intelligence. A lot of Jews were raised by wounded people, dealing with generational trauma. Doesn't create intelligence. Jews are born with high IQs. Genetic. Still, those who thrive thrive despite their circumstances.
Im Jewish, i don't consider my 'people' more intelligent . Im not sue that that's true.

As a jew, and a religious jew, i believe the urge to show gods name in the world is the best motivation one can get, and when you do it from a pure and loving care for the other nations, it represents itself. Also people dont understand how deep the torah goes, and to learn it, it takes a whole lot of thinking and a lot of wisdom.

Main reason is they do business with each other and favor other Jewish businesses. Also they use charities to support their community. They are extremely well organized as rich Jews donate money to Jewish organizations, tax-deductible. What a commendable culture! I wish every group was like the Jews.

Per capita, Jews donate more to non Jewish causes, than non Jews do. Otoh, not many non Jews are donating to purely Jewish causes.
They are incredible. I admire them.
I am not Jewish but I have some indirect contact via my wife who moved from Japan to Cincinnati as a child. As an asian she took education seriously. There were very few asians there so she ended up in a class with mostly Jewish kids. Many people confuse IQ with intelligence. It is a measure of how well you will do in school, not intelligence. It is also heavily influenced by environment. In the case of asians and jewish people the expectations are that their children will do well in school They study harder. They learn more. They score higher on IQ tests. If we want the best for our kids we should model them instead of making excuses for our kids doing worse in school.
Jews make up a quarter of one percent of world population but 20% of Nobel prize winners - you cannot say this about AsIans.

IQ measures cognitive capacity and abilities and is not distributed equally between or within groups though there are group averages,
Sorry @Stephenbird5472, but I think IQ measures a TYPE of intelligence. The abstract one. So it doesn't condemn anyone's general abilities, but it is still important, specially in modern societies in my opinion (STEM field activities).
Work together. Thats the real reason. Do the right thing in life and help each other out.
You mean band together, close ranks and let the nepotism flow like the River Jordan.. oh and never be the first one to reach for the bill 😘
In my point of prespective
1. Education
Jewish people make alot of effort to get good education.
Education and knowledge is the key to be succsesfull in life, and when you have it why not to aim high, position and power and so on.
2. Jewish people get married with Jewish people.

As for why Ashkenazi Jews have a higher IQ:
1. That culture used to be based on studying the holy books. Your success in life (including selection of mates) was dependent on being recognized as a scholar. Thousands of years of selecting for the best scolars (even if it's just holy books) will produce geniuses and then all you need to do is swap the holy books for real science
2. Jews in Europe were forbidden to own land and therefore they were forced to undertake service jobs: Doctor, dentist, lawyer, accountant, engineer...
3. Multiple near-extinction events killed a lot of the dull, complacent ones!
Confucian culture is also based on studying a canon of classics.
Exactly. Even if this results in only a quarter IQ-point increase per generation, that becomes huge after a few centuries.
How the point 1 helps in becoming successful ?
the second point 😂 you guys love the word forced to be an engineer eh
Excellent point about Jewish success being related to IQ. I would also say the fact that historically the majority of Jews have attempted to live ethically and according to their faith, is also a reason for their competency. Jewish people have a reputation for honesty and upright dealing which in my own limited experience from UK is true.My grandfather sold jellies in the period after the World War 2 and the Jewish community in Glasgow was very kind to him.
No it's because Jewish parents and grandparents wont stop being annoying and complaining.

@@angelabrooke5059 Well, I have relatives who are Jewish so...I'm speaking from observations not guess work. As to being critical of Israel...I majored in History at the undergraduate level and my Dad was in WW2. Israel is the victim. Jews are the victims. History does not lie unless it is manipulated by antisemites.
I would say that the Jewish person who asked the question about Jews being over represented in positions of power and authority understood perfectly well why Jews are so successful in a range of areas in life.
I would be interested to know what was said before he appeared to Jordan "to have an axe to grind". I wonder what Jordan had already said or omitted to say.
If he is a Jew, he would know how his fellow Jews live, raise their children, eat, spend their time, about their faith, their history, the way they discuss, value debate, their clever humour, how much and how they study, and the types of rules they tend to live by. He would know how men help raise boys, and how girls are raised including the ways of developing the talents the child is born with.
He would be very well aware of the important
milestone that boys and girls (at the age of about 13) reach and all the meaning and responsibility involved with that transition into adulthood. He would also know how strong Jewish women are and how strongly and deeply elders are honoured and respected.
He would be well aware of how creative and musical Jews would tend to be.
He would be aware of how Jews have been forced to adapt to all the past eras of persecution, and alienation that Jews have been subjected to for so very many hundreds of years.
He would know that through being unable to participate in various occupations in the past, Jews have adapted and become great at surviving financially in spite of all of that. He would also be more than capable of seeing the difference between Jewish lifestyles and those of many other nonJewish people he comes into contact with.
It seems to me, that in the area of religion alone, Jews often have a clearer picture of biblical history than very many Christians. Other things worth noting relate to the entire history and belief that God had directed them thousands of years ago. These views and the Jews' incredible ability to survive when many other groups have disappeared, cannot be underestimated.
Jews clearly tend to live very purposeful lives. That is a far cry from the many thousands of young men who listen to , write to and are inspired by Jordan Peterson to change their lives, "clean up their rooms", put their shoulders back and take responsibility.
The Hebrew Bible is a lot deeper because Hebrew is the language it was written in at an earlier time.
I don't think the Jew asked the question because he needed an answer. Perhaps, as a Jew, he wanted a bit more discussion and debate? Well, the narrowminded, angry views of people didn't make that possible.
As Jordan Peterson points out, approaching the question on the basis of race has its limitations. I am surprised that "nurture" wasn't then discussed by Jordan.
In fact, as Jordan has given many lectures on the bible and has looked fairly deeply ( although probably not as deeply as Jews have) at the "old testament".
One thing I learned from Jordan is that these old stories are "truer than true".
I have myself lived through things that remind me of Cain and Abel, and Joseph and his jealous brothers. So that is just one good example for me. I do believe though, that Jews have a far deeper understanding of this ancient wisdom than Jordan will have.
I have certainly gained the impression that strong views, including antisemetism is live and well. "Being killed" is very strong language.
I am not religious or Jewish, but I know enough about the incredible gifts of the Jews, as well as the teachings of Jeshua/ Jesus himself and other Jews after him.
I was shocked, truly shocked recently to hear a percentage of people who believed that Jews caused the Holocaust. ??!!!
I don't really know a lot about Jewish life, but if people still think that way about Jews, well that is a very disturbing indictment about the level of intelligence, knowledge and humanity in the population even after all our world has been through.
It will be interesting to see the next thousand comments here.
I hope people here will take an interest in this incredible, purposeful, strong, intelligent, talented, spiritual group of true survivors.
I was listening to a very old recording of Bob Dylan recently. He was very young and was being very disrespectfully hounded by the press. He replied to one of them, "I wouldn't do that to you". Such a beautiful, pure response from a very young musician with such incredible talent. Such respect and honesty shown to an older person who frankly didn't deserve it.
A large percentage of Jews in the world actually know very little about their own culture and religion. Constant persecution and assimilation have sadly distanced them from their roots
Because G-d is ALL GOoDness & the holocaust certainly doesn’t seem to represent GOoDness & understanding that there are Divine Torah rules for Jews to choose to abide by…or not, & experience the consequences …
1 clear explanation about how WE Jews, ourselves, actually created this heart wrenching reality is illuminated in a manuscript by Rav Avigdor Miller called: A Divine Madness. His children had it published after his departure from this world. He wrote it decades earlier, leaving it in his drawer because of his sensitivity to the rawness of this national tragedy at the time. Knowing that WE are indeed responsible for our lives is empowering & the book helps us learn from our mistakes - when we choose to learn & GEZt the lessons!
Thank you. This made me cry. My grandparents were survivors and so much of what you said was instilled in me growing up. We are ultimately an ancient tribe of survivors and if my Oma and Opa survived THAT, then I can survive this.
thank you for your wisdom. you may not be Jewish by birth but you are Jewish in spirit and truth.

I haven't seen this thread for a long time, and it's embarrassing to see how much I write! It's amazing if anyone reads it too.
But you have really touched my heart.
"Jewish in spirit" is a beautiful thought and there could be truth in it.
I am a Jewish descendant. The Jews were in England and went to Australia in the 1800s where one built the first synagogue there in Hobart.
I have very thick dark hair like my mother's. She called it her "Jewish hair". My girlfriend said that a lot of people in Israel have hair like mine. Several times when I have done things, she has basically said "that's because you are Jewish".
I admire our Maori culture here in New Zealand very very much. One thing is that
whakapapa (genealogy) is very important. The indigenous people know their whakapapa back dozens of generations, because it was memorized through a kind of chanting.
How wonderful it must be to know your own history very well. It must instill a lot of strength and inspiration, like what our Maori people have inside them.
I wish I knew where my Jewish ancestors came from before they went to London, or England. I guess there was intense persecution somewhere.
I am very, very grateful that you read my comment and also replied, and with a perceptive view.
You have prompted me to find out more, and also have a DNA test done. Tupuna (ancestors) are important to me and the ancient wisdom they have that we can learn from. I am on the lookout for ways I can honour my parents, grandparents who died before I was born, and great grandparents who came here from the other side of the world on the ocean. I am wondering more also, what I can leave for my children.
I don't know much about Jews, apart from things I have picked up along the way.
I wonder where you are in the world and what your background is. 🤔
What is usury?
interest
Wow, really? You really don’t know??? Look it up.
Would *you* lend money to a stranger without asking for any payment of interest in return for the risk you’re taking?
Defined differently in each state. In LA I believe it’s interest rate above 34 or 36 percent
@@buoazej lmao! Bingo. But we aren’t allowed to say that
I just like jews because they are intellectual people. They are very smart and resourceful. My poetry writing teacher was Jewish. I saw his library and I was floored. He had two rooms full of books. I love anyone who reads and who devotes themselves to thinking. Jews love to think.
@@daktraveler56 What is less well known is that Arabs too are smart. The tiny Gaza strip had several universities.
Sadly the Holocaust removed a large percentage of those that could have contributed enormously to the health & well being of the human race.

Encyclopedia Britannica published few years after the war said there's more of them then before the war by a few hundred thousands.
That's debatable at best.
@@kbvvl3186 I think were it not for useless Palestinians, the Jews in Israel would have changed the world already.
Just an observation. Christian churchs have moved in mass from preaching how to conduct your life within biblical teachings to spending much more time on worship. Jewish synagogues still spend a lot of time on studying the proper way to conduct one’s life. It seems to me that with that change that Christian society is not gaining as much benefit as they used to from the bibles wonderful lessons.
Some observations: I have known quite a few Jewish people and families for many years. First. The parents tend to stay married. I can't recall a single divorce. Second the children are expected to do well in school and in life EXPECTED. Third, in a more general way having been discriminated against for centuries causes I believe, in a Darwinian "Survival of the fittest" situation where those who are the most intelligent tend to survive. Next, they have a tight culture. The fact that it is small helps. Another is the existence of the Bar and Bat mitvah experience. Many young people as a rite of passage have to prepare for a public display of their ability to recite FROM MEMORY extensive passages from the Torah and more. I have been to these and was impressed. Another expectation for them to study and prepare. Compare all that with the families in the "normal" non Jewish American family. Pretty easy to see why they excel. They WORK at it. Much can be said of the Chinese who I have known, as well as the Japanese.
This is a great comment but as someone who has probably been to 150 bar mitzvahs (and also had one) I have to say I’ve never heard of a kid having to memorize their Torah portion or Haftara. We spend years studying Hebrew so we can read them.
Well said.
@@ls6720 I memorized mine by mistake😅😅 I was shocked when they unscrolled the Torah
I had a Jewish roommate in graduate school. He was working on a Masters in order to go into a PhD degree. His brother was a lawyer and his sister was a doctor. He told me his parents said: "They would not pay for my schooling unless I earned a PhD in the subject and all I want to do is work in industry." His parents also constantly hounded him about his grades, which were not great.
The Talmud holds that only Jews are true human beings and Gentiles are “goyim” (meaning cattle or beast). The following are shocking but exact quotes from their various books.
Sanhedrin 59a: “Murdering Goyim is like killing a wild animal.”
Abodah Zara 26b: “Even the best of the Gentiles should be killed.”
Sanhedrin 59a: “A goy (Gentile) who pries into The Law (Talmud) is guilty of death.”
Libbre David 37: “To communicate anything to a Goy about our religious relations would be equal to the killing of all Jews, for if the Goyim knew what we teach about them, they would kill us openly.”
Libbre David 37: “If a Jew be called upon to explain any part of the rabbinic books, he ought to give only a false explanation. Who ever will violate this order shall be put to death.”
(They contest the previous two)
Yebhamoth 11b: “Sexual intercourse with a little girl is permitted if she is three years of age.”
Schabouth Hag. 6d: “Jews may swear falsely by use of subterfuge wording.”
Hilkkoth Akum X1: “Do not save Goyim in danger of death.”
Hilkkoth Akum X1: “Show no mercy to the Goyim.”
Choschen Hamm 388, 15: “If it can be proven that someone has given the money of Israelites to the Goyim, a way must be found after prudent consideration to wipe him off the face of the earth.”
Choschen Hamm 266,1: “A Jew may keep anything he finds which belongs to the Akum (Gentile). For he who returns lost property (to Gentiles) sins against the Law by increasing the power of the transgressors of the Law. It is praiseworthy, however, to return lost property if it is done to honor the name of God, namely, if by so doing, Christians will praise the Jews and look upon them as honorable people.”
Szaaloth-Utszabot, The Book of Jore Dia 17: “A Jew should and must make a false oath when the Goyim asks if our books contain anything against them.”
Baba Necia 114, 6: “The Jews are human beings, but the nations of the world are not human beings but beasts.”
Simeon Haddarsen, fol. 56-D: “When the Messiah comes every Jew will have 2800 slaves.”
Nidrasch Talpioth, p. 225-L: “Jehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is consequently an animal in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night.”
Aboda Sarah 37a: “A Gentile girl who is three years old can be violated.”
Gad. Shas. 2:2: “A Jew may violate but not marry a non-Jewish girl.”
Tosefta. Aboda Zara B, 5: “If a goy kills a goy or a Jew, he is responsible; but if a Jew kills a goy, he is NOT responsible.”
Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 388: “It is permitted to kill a Jewish denunciator everywhere. It is permitted to kill him even before he denounces.”
Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 348: “All property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which, consequently, is entitled to seize upon it without any scruples.”
Tosefta, Abda Zara VIII, 5: “How to interpret the word ‘robbery.’ A goy is forbidden to steal, rob, or take women slaves, etc., from a goy or from a Jew. But a Jew is NOT forbidden to do all this to a goy.”
Seph. Jp., 92, 1: “God has given the Jews power over the possessions and blood of all nations.”
Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 156: “When a Jew has a Gentile in his clutches, another Jew may go to the same Gentile, lend him money and in turn deceive him, so that the Gentile shall be ruined. For the property of a Gentile, according to our law, belongs to no one, and the first Jew that passes has full right to seize it.”
Schulchan Aruch, Johre Deah, 122: “A Jew is forbidden to drink from a glass of wine which a Gentile has touched, because the touch has made the wine unclean.”
Nedarim 23b: “He who desires that none of his vows made during the year be valid, let him stand at the beginning of the year and declare, ‘Every vow which I may make in the future shall be null’. His vows are then invalid..
Yep! People should spend more time being logical like this instead of arguing a point from sheer emotion with nothing to back it up.
It's not about intelligence at all. He needs to go deeper which he hasn't. It is about the ancient cultural drive for non-stop daily education including the habit of intense questioning. And this happens with all segments of Jews, not just with Ashkenazim. It's embedded as a way of transmitting values through generations and it starts very early in life
I think it is also about the culture. They give a high value for education, for knowledge., family.
They are blessed by God too
When I was a law clerk in 1987, the District Court Judge whom I was assigned, taught me something. We were discussing how many Vietnamese were shrimpers, how a case we had involved several families living in a house He quizzed me- What do u call 2nd generation Vietnamese? Then answered Valedictorians. Most people and socioeconomic groups are successful bc of work ethic. I believe that some people are gifted w high IQs; however the rest of us have to work hard to achieve the American dream.
I am profoundly impressed by the remarkable achievements of the Jewish people in Israel since 1948. They have transformed an arid desert into a flourishing paradise. Living in a region blessed with a temperate climate, we have much to learn from their innovative agricultural practices and dedication to cultivation. Their accomplishments are truly admirable, reflecting the extraordinary nature of this people.
Indeed, they succeeded in killing and displacing the indigenous people of the land (the Palestinians) and they are still killing and displacing them. It is a great act indeed, but it was not the work of the Zionist Jews alone, but rather it was originally the work of Western colonialism, British, French and American. Israel is an extension of Western colonialism in the region, and the Jews are merely tools in this Western colonialism. Israel is no different from America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa in this colonial settlement aspect, but those countries have abandoned the policies of killing, displacement and discrimination and have accepted the indigenous people as citizens in their state, but Israel still considers itself a state of the Jews only, while the indigenous people have either to be killed or displaced.
@@zooluwarrior yes all the arabs who were living there prior to 1948 did absolutely NOTHING
Hard work did not appeal to them
Now they want the land back after.the jews transformed it.into a land of milk and honey!
A high IQ does not mean common sense.
I have a PhD in neuropsychology, with honours (also for my thesis). My sister has a bachelor degree from McGill in electrical engineering, and recently got a new degree with the best average grade in her years. I am so proud of my big sister. She’s older than me and was one of the only girls in electrical engineering at McGill. Now there are many more.
Not Jewish though. I went to Brébeuf in college. Some were children or physicians, politicians and professors… the injustice was not religious-specific
This👇 precisely is the reason for the success of Jewish people .

Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it.

At 2:38 "The average Ashkenazi has an IQ somewhere between 110 and 150. Which is about one standard deviation above the population average". That 150 should be 115 not 150. The standard IQ deviation is 15. The standard average IQ is 100. Also they are talking about Jewish IQ's and they're showing a bunch of Asians walking around. Weird.
I believe the standard IQ “Of College Graduates” is 100. Most newspapers are written to the 5th grade level so the population can read. General population is way below 100.

First of all, you must all understand that there are only 15 millions Jews in the world and millions are not overly successfull. Many are middle class and many too are poor. You might not see that so much in The US, but just go to Israel and I can promise that you'll see many poor Jews. Our successes, collectively that is, are rooted in one main thing, and that's our written tradition. Having texts to engage in and debate and argue about for 6000 has done something to us developmentallly and culturallly, over epochs and various places globally. Not many cutures as ancient as mine can claim the same.
As a percentage they have more successful people; Einstein, Marx, Freud...
@@angelabrooke5059 Yes, prehaps relative to our very low numbers in the world, but even the people you mention here fundementally owe thier successes to the fact that they are people from a culture that valued text. It's everything.
We have tons of poor Jews in the US but the tight community is a buffer. For example in my area there’s a huge Jewish summer camp and probably 40% of the kids have scholarships. There’s also highly Jewish Senior housing for poor seniors and a Kosher food bank.
@@angelabrooke5059 And so do mnay other ethnic groups angel, but yes, my peoeple are more successful relative to our small size of about.02% ot the total world population. And there is one main reason for this. It isn't that we are smarter or have super powers. The main reason is because our culture is steeped in written tradition, and less oral. Text demand reading and interperting and this alone has shaped us for 1000s of years.
@@ls6720 ... It's so crazy to me that so many people automatically plug us all as being wealthy. I'm Jewish and I am so far from being wealthy it's insane.
In Europe, for centuries Jews were not allowed to own land or work in trades ran by the guilds. This limited their options in making a living. Add to that the fact that the Church did not allow Christians to become money lenders, so the Jews stepped in and filled the gap and a few went on to become well to do or even wealthy. The royals and aristocracy knew where to come for money when they needed it, creating a mutually beneficial system, encouraged by the ruling class. It did benefit a few, however the vast majority of Jews continued to live in great poverty well up to WWII.
Yes, why would you allow any foreigners to own any part of your country.

@@Linda-k7eyou have the broad contours right but it was highly variable depending on the region and time - the pendulum would swing back from various forms of persecution, expulsion, being put in ghettos, pogroms etc - and yes in between there were the rights to do the “allowed” jobs deemed too uncivilized for the ruling class. Money lending had its dark sides too as the Jews were also targetted the second the ruling borrowers couldn’t pay back their massive debts - which was another recurring theme

If any nation is exceptional it would be the Italians more than any other nation including the Jews. There is no match for a Michelangelo or a Leonardo da Vinci, just like there is no match for a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. No nation in the world has as many recognisable brands as the Italians do, just start with Nutella.
Italians and Jews are close genetically. Ashkenazi Jews came to Europe via Italy.
Visual arts (yeah I know Da Vinci did some technical designs as well, but those were speculative and mostly not realized), food and luxury brands are not the be all and end all. Jews are the ethnicity with the largest amount of nobel prizes, mainly in the hard sciences and maths (you know, the things scientific and technological process really rely on). They make up .2% of the world's population but have won 22% of Nobel prizes, meaning they outscore the average by about 100 times.
@@3rdEyeWide 22% of Nobel prizes for what, for inventing the light bulb, television, jet, diesel or petrol engines, radio, steam engine, telephone, washing machine, motor car, concrete or even hot water ? Most of those 22% of Nobel prize’s were awarded for theories like Einsteins theory while most of the worthwhile discoveries were made or invented by Germans, English, Italians and the French. Most of the greatest mathematicians were German and so were the classical music masters like Beethoven and Mozart, in food it’s the Italians and French and in sport the ones who really excel are the people of Africa and their descendants in America.

What Peterson says is statistically true, provided the "right-skewness" and variance do not both decrease with a move in the distribution mean to the right. So if the right tail is the right tail focus, talk about the location of the mean is virtually meaningless.
Im not jew, but i admire judaism alot, i really believe that its the real religion of God, Jewish people are smart because they know the secrets of the universe, they study, pray, and worship God not for them to be saved or sum like that, but to earn knowlegde, wisdom and how to proceed well in their lifes, not only for them selves but also for the ones around them.
Pretty much common sense
Even with my little knowledge of statistics, I am not sure I understood why Jewish are the most succesful people?
you're not the only one, he didn't explain it very well.
@@annalouisepaulThe answer is very clear... Jews have on average a higher IQ. This means they produce more Geniuses. We Draw leaders from the Tail-end i.e the extremes.... So Jews are more successful because they statistically produce more Geniuses.
Assuming a normal distribution across groups, a small shift of one curve in relation to another has minimal effects on differentiating people in the centre, however people on the tails of the curves will have a disproportionate representation. In other words, even though Ashkenazi Jews are one standard deviation higher than the typical 100IQ mean distribution, they will land up being greatly over represented at the very top of IQ holders, and therefore be over represented in the prestigious fields in which genius IQ is important. That is why Ashkenazi Jews are found in positions of power (across all political spectrums), but also across high finance, science, technology, classical music etc.
Most are in the drivers seat, to simply put it.
Berel Solomon explains it very well.
Interestingly and not surprisingly catholic, protestant and muslim antisemites also turned on Thomas Sowel when he explained why jews were disliked.
And both Jordan and Thomas cringe and wince at the comments posted.
Jews are successful because Ashkenazis are intelligent on the whole along with nepotism and ethnocentrism. The tribal and ethnocentric communitarians will always overcome ‘rugged individualists’ and rootless cosmopolitans.
I agree. But once the individualist is pushed to a point of severe oppression from the communist ingroup all hell breaks loose and the game seems to reset and around and around we go. It’s always confrontational and historically violent.
@@JourneyWithDrBill , groups are ‘communist’ now?
The reason is simple. Because god chose the Jewish people to be leaders, to be a light upon the nations. One of the most fundamental requirements of leadership is intelligence. Also as an observat jew if you walk to my house or any hews house, you will find an unusually large library of both scripture and other books. Jews love to read and learn and work very hard.
At last. Someone has spelled it out. IQ differentials explain EVERYTHING.
my observation tells me IQ is definitely not the important factor when it comes to business or making money. I've seen people who could barely graduate from highschool, simply stupidly follow successful people's footpath and make millions a year. it's just a pure luck and number game. if people try hard enough for as many times as possible, there will be at least one time for them to hit the jackpot, and that changes it all, just like most youtubers say: it only takes you one video to get there.
IQ has nothing to do with education. Some father most stupid individuals are highly educated.

Well, look at the history of Jewish people in Eastern Europe. Even within poor families of the Stadel, knowledge of reading and writing was important, as the Torah was and is a key element of Jewish identity. A young jew grew up with knowledge of hebrew, as the language of the bible, within the family typically Jiddish was the language of communication. Then, the young jew, men and women, had to speak the local language, i.e. ucrainian, polish etc. As most of these regions were inhabited by people of different culture and languages, it was not unusual to speak several of the surrounding languages. Especially, if you had a profession like trade, which involved the necessity of communication. And many jews had some profession in trade as they were not allowed in farming or in traditional craft guilds. And, and top of that all, you needed to develop a character and skills to survive progroms, to withstand daily humilation and uphold your dignity. I think, that this is one of the reasons, why there were so many influential and sucessfull jews.

What should society do about un succcessful people? Are they disabled people?
Because we don’t pray five times a day
Muslims pray 5 times a day. Jewish people pray 3 times a day.
Muslims do and you see where they at 🤷♂️
Because they cooperate with other members of their tribe to the detriment of others. It's actually their religion.
The British were highly successful for several centuries, far more successful than the jews ever were, and that success was attributable to an almost unbelievable standard of cooperation operating at all levels.
Where there are many words sin lieth at the door.
One wise man told asked me once, "What can you always have and nobody can steal it from you? WHat can you take with you everywhere and no customs can charge you for it?" The answer is simple, it is THE KNOWLEDGE. If you want to be sure that you can not just survive but succeed too, you must accumulate knowledge. Invest all the time you can into learning and you will be successful.
The most successful people in the 20th century, you mean. And then you have to be more specific as to 'where'. Also: not all success is beneficial to humanity.
Biology reacts with society. On the extremes the distribution plays out.
Always amazed why Jews evoke so much interest from non-Jews. As my father used to say, if we are the chosen, next time G-D, please choose someone else! By the way, we never said we are the chosen. We said, we chose G-D.

Subtitles suck.
So much people these days are a mix of different races. But still a lot of people link individuals to just one race to keep it simple for themselves. Mostly on the basis of looks.
I think there are different types on intelligence - high IQ, common sense, and sneaky smarts (manipulation of the system or other people to benefit the manipulator). This later type has no character, integrity, honor, duty, responsiblity, their only allegence is to themselves and their tribe.
You must be refering to an ex-president we all know. Can't think of anyone who would fit the bill better.
@@Linda-k7e communism 101 - accuse your enemies of doing what you are doing.
They just care about each other, only help out each other, and have a disregard for the host societies they live in and from which they drain all desirable resources. In that regard they don't act "scholarly" but simply materialistic.
Scientia Est Potentia, "Knowledge is power". It is also the one commodity that Others cannot steal from you. Jews learned early on from the many tragedies that befell Them, what is inside One's head is involate from One's enemies. Add to that the requirement of Their population to be literate, in order to discuss and understand Their Code of Laws written down in the Torah. As Hebrew is vowel less, not an easy language to master. Also two separate periods of introgression with H. neanderthal. Who bequeathed H.sapiens sapiens with a thick cortex.

As a critical thinker, Peterson should ask a few more questions, such as who developed the IQ test, are they Chomsky's colleagues? And, their sampling methods?
