Clickbait
Not really I explained everything, but it might have not surprised you too. I said might so it's not really clickbait
I saw your previous comment, you admitted that it was clickbait by saying "lol yeah" you're not slick
I know then I realized it's not technically clickbait since I said might surprise you so I deleted it and made a new response
If a 2 guys with machine guns are coming and all you have is a bat and a huge speaker, how do you escape. Tactical situations are situations where you have to think of a plan to escape a sticky situation. Example is you could use the speaker to blast music. When the person is irritated and moves in to turn it down, you knock him out and take the gun. You use the gun to fight off the second guy. You also plan to get the advantage in chess all the time, so the more you play, the better you get at those.
I would throw the bat at one guy and the speaker at the other, and hope that, somehow, both hit their targets hard in the head and knock them out. And that would be a better plan than yours.

How would you throw the huge speaker? Btw they have machine guns. If one dodged it, ur dead...

You watch too many (bad) movies.
I would say chess only makes you smarter if you apply what you've learnt in chess in other areas of your life. I think being able to handle mistakes and learn from them is one of the importants things I learnt early on.
I agree it doesn't make you smarter in an IQ sense but improves your ability to concentrate and analyze and remember. I'm an example.
I'm 67 and at the beginning of 2017, retired for 10 years, returned to chess after 15 years away because I realized my math skills and short-term memory were slipping. I used to amaze my high school chemistry and physics students by doing complex calculations in my head.
But it got to the point where I would read the S&P 500 Index for American Stocks, currently 2549.33, and by the time I was going to enter it into a spreadsheet where I track my stocks, I had forgotten one or more digitis. I divide my food buying in groceries, snacks, beverages, and household-items categories in my budget spreadsheet and some items but not others have a 6% sales tax. I was beginning to have trouble, doing it all in my head, separating all the numbers on a receipt into those catergories and determine how much of the sales tax went into each category.
Now it's not true anymore. The S&P 500 Index I quoted above has not been in my text windows for a couple minutes and I've been thinking about other things, but I remember it's 2549.33.
Now I go through my receipts like a knife through butter. And it extends to other things - like remembering what I am supposed to buy at the store if I didn't put together a shopping list.
Studies show that people in their 50's or older who do things regulatly like chess, crossword puzzles, and similar things have a much lower rate of Alzheimer's Disease or Dimentia than the avg. population. I expect to keep doing it as a get older.
So the "result" you promised is basically just your opinion? Interesting.
It does increase concentration, attention, memory and tactical thinking. But it doesn't improve IQ. How is that an opinion. Being smart means having a higher IQ.
"Result" implies some sort of study. But you didn't provide any source or proof for your claim. So I assume that you are stating your opinion.
You're making a bunch of unverified claims. You have no idea what you're talking about.
These aren't claims, I did some research and I'm simplifying it.

Look it up. There has been a study. I'm just simplifying what's already out there.

I used to play chess often and I was getting better and better at it. One summer, I was introduced to anime. I completely stopped playing chess because anime was really awesome( specifically naruto) at some point, I finished the show, 720 episodes!! Each 23 minutes. And I played chess again. I sucked!! I started getting scared that I lost all my chess skills. But in time they're back!

According to a study playing blindfold chess leads to mastery at cooking. You don't believe me? Look it up! The study is really good. I promise.

Looked it up, not true
Not a single joke about the misspelled word in the title? I'm impressed.
What misspelled word?
Years ago, my friend was playing five minute with Arthur Bisguier. He commented that no grandmaster had ever gotten Alzheimers. My friend wrote his dissertation on the impact of chess on school success and found a positive relationship. Although other studies may have different results, this occurs frequently and is often a result of the population selected and the methods used. An analytic technique called meta-analysis can be used to look at multiple studies and can be effective in determining if relationships are real or spurious.

I love what you wrote and its very inspiring, growing older doesn't mean a diminishing mental abilities. 
Wow, ur gifted!
