There's a fairly strong correlation between parent's income, the child's education, and the child's IQ. I believe it was according to IQ Testing 101 (I went through a psych textbook binge a year ago, so I'm not entirely sure), but the correlation was fairly strong IIRC - on the order of 10 IQ points. Since education and IQ correlate strongly with income, you wind up with a very strongly self reinforcing pattern - parents who are intelligent and educated typically earn a high income, which correlates to children who are smarter and who achieve high education which correlates to a higher paying job, ad infinitum. Likewise, uneducated and... well, there's no better term for it... stupid parents tend to earn little money and have kids who are less intelligent and educated, which correlates with low income, ad infinitum.
