I'm a really stupid individual, I can't even hold a job or know how to drive. I really want to become and archeologist because it's a childhood dream of mine but there's no denying that my stupidity might be a challenge if not an impediment

Do you think it's possible or am I doomed?

I won't read yet another I'm soooo stoooopid! thread. Nothing anyone suggests makes any difference and OP never hangs around.

No there is basically no career here. If you are rich you can do it for fun. If you are charismatic and have other skills you can get people to listen to you and use that to sell them stuff or run ads.

Depends. How low is your IQ?

It's possible. You don't need to have intelligence to accomplish things in life. Intelligence does not determine whether you can or cannot do something. It determines how fast and efficiently can you do something.

So if you aren't smart, it doesn't mean you are banned from ever having knowledge. It just means you need to take longer at internalizing it. And the best way you can do that is not to lean on your mind, instead, use your gut. The human stomach has the second highest number of neurons. It's also interconnected with the brain.

Instinct is a great way to compensate for lack of intelligence. Instead of thinking, you will rely on feeling. And if you repeatedly feel through failure and success, correct assumptions and false assumptions, eventually you learn through osmosis. You eventually become knowledgeable and competent at any field you choose.

This is why low IQs are as useful as High IQs. The actual dead weight in society are the middle IQs. They neither use their gut or their brain.

Go chase your dream son

Half the people I know with doctorates are morons. Should do fine if you enjoy it. People are like dogs: they'll love any bullshit you tell them as long as it's enthusiastic.

I have no idea what archaeologists do but I'm pretty sure Buster was one in Arrested Development and that guy had severe autism so you'll probably be fine.
