Kyros, that's not how it works: en.wikipedia.org

It's nothing to do with selected professions: <Smart Ashkenazi genes probably have something to do with the fact that European Jews were restricted for a thousand years to professions that required a lot of brainpower, such as money lending, so they bred accordingly. >

You can't make a chimp smart by telling him he has to be a Wall Street money lender, even if you pay him a lot, as has recently been shown right there on Wall Street.

As I explained on the origins of brains, the haplotypes of Ashkenazis show that the north-west Indian component is an essential ingredient. <Sephardi Jews, who lived in Morocco, Palestine and the rest of the Middle East have average intelligence. > By 'north-west India' I don't mean any old Indian living in that area. I mean hidden in there are the really seriously hot-stuff brain components. They are lurking there like needles in haystacks, but they need combination with the Bedouin/Palestinian/Moroccan to really hit the jackpot.

But why reinvent the wheel? To find the really hot-stuff DNA, just do some testing on the Ashkenazi DNA to find the really good genes which mothers should tick as being the right stuff to gene-splice into their zygotes [or morula, blastocyst or whenever is the right time to do genetic engineering].
