http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IQ gives a good overview.  According to
it, 1 in 50 - 2% - are above 132.  So 133 would let you squeak in.

That said, Mensa only requires that you prove your IQ when you enter.
Age-related degradation of IQ after entry, by itself, does not remove
one from Mensa at this time (although certain ill-advised actions that
some might take as a result, might cause removal).
