IQ is a very narrow form of intelligence, we don't understand enough about intelligence to even measure it. With some life experience (not much compared to most of you on this forum), I've realized that intelligence gives you a huge edge but hard work is what seals the deal. It doesn't carry you anywhere if you don't put the work into it, and this is coming from someone who has never had difficulty learning anything from science to art to languages (not the same as gaining expertise in these fields). Nobody wants to hire someone who learns fast but doesn't have a work ethic. They're really quite useless. So while intelligence is a definite asset, work is what got all of us here. All the scientific breakthroughs had many undergraduates toiling away in labs namelessly and often without pay. Same goes to all the other industries that keep mankind alive. I don't like people with high IQs who think they're superior. A cleaner saves more lives than a professor on a daily basis by keeping our environment clean and sanitary. As for eugenics, we all practice eugenics by picking our partner, that is your one vote, you don't get to control other people's breeding habits.
