Not the case with my two boys. My oldest is smart and athletic, but my youngest has a higher IQ. He took an IQ test at school when he was 10 and scored a 148. He made a 25 on an ACT practice test at 11.
My oldest scored 135 on his IQ test.

IQ tests are being proven to be fundamentally flawed
Link? I think you'll find the metric by which they evaluate IQ to be flawed.
i.e. "Someone with IQ of 100 is a Billionaire, and someone with an IQ of 150 makes $15/hour so obviously IQ flawed!"
or
"green people avg 110 IQ and blue people avg 90 iq, so being that we are all equal, IQ tests are flawed"

"I have two sons. One has a genius level IQ 12 points below Einstein, and the other is just slightly below genius level!"

I believe this might be sort of true, as far as IQ goes. As the third of 4, it seems that way with us, though it's not much of a noticeable difference. However, our incomes and career paths would suggest exactly the opposite. However, being educated in job fields with good outlook has nothing to do with IQ. Glad I was just dumb enough to not go for my biggest dreams, instead going for a slightly lesser dream with much more income.

In general, there is a positive correlation between IQ and income levels, but it plateaus above a certain level. Basically, you have to be "smart enough" but intelligence above that threshold doesn't do much for your stature in life and has a negative correlation to happiness at very high IQs.

IQ isn't concerned about high income. That's animalistic greed. IQ really just shows that you won't be a burden to society.

The more older brothers a boy has, the more likely he is to be gay when he grows up – an effect called the “fraternal birth order effect”.
Now it seems that increasing levels of antibodies in a mother’s immune system could play a role.
So the youngest son is prolly gay here?
