IQ is SUCH a bogus concept to begin with. There are several types of intelligence. Emotional (empathy), mathematical, problem solving, comprehension, memorization, incorporating new information, just to name a few. One number isn't going to tell you anything about which types of intelligence a person is high in. And no one is high in all. Someone might have very high mathematical and problem solving intelligence, but very low emotional and memorization. As for geniuses, they're all, practically speaking, left-handed monkey wrenches, as in, very capable in one task and borderline useless in others. People who are supremely wealthy, while not unintelligent, aren't geniuses, they're unscrupulous and willing to do whatever it takes to accumulate wealth, often to the detriment of society.
