Even if it's just IRL this'd be making you Albert Einstein of the modern age. I feel it'd be close to impossible to not be able to use it to at least get very rich, and with science at the level it is today one has to question what Albert Einstein would discover and figure out with what we have now as the starting baseline.

If it's fictional levels of super intelligence where it's basically a super power then absolutely taking it. "Tony Stark built this in a cave! With a box of scrap!" That sort of intelligence would make it basically impossible to not be able to basically shape the world as you see fit through your inventions (and get rich extremely easily).

So yes if it's Stark (or Stormlight Archive spoilers Taravangian) levels of intelligence, but maybe not if it's Einstein. It's easy to see how having Einstein intelligence in the current day would end badly, what with how obviously bad things are going being. Getting rich might be nice but then you have to consider the curse of intelligence, the curse of knowing exactly what's going to happen at a global scale and being ignored by the people in power who are all legitimately stupid (in one way or the other. Some are like certain orange men, but they're all ultimately science-ignoring selfish scumbags that only act decisively when they have zero choice to varying degrees.)
