Context matters, I suspect. I don’t think that having a 140 IQ would be all that fun if everyone one interacted with on a daily basis was in the 90-100 range.
Unless you really enjoy winning or achieving social success and dominance (and don’t have an accompanying social disfunction to go with your IQ).

I suspect that in the country of the stupid the moderately intelligent individual would be less successful and dominant than he might hope.
I would bet against you—with the aforementioned caveats that said individual is not socially handicapped and is ambitious.
I also wouldn’t call 90-100 IQ ‘stupid’ or 140 IQ ‘moderately intelligent’.
