Men in the U.S. who drink alcohol receive about 7% higher wages than do abstainers, according to data from the national Household Survey on Drug Abuse (United States Department of Health and Human Services). Women who drink receive about three and one-half percent higher wages than do abstainers.
hooray! we are going down the path of glory! 😉
Considering that men/women who drink spend a *considerable* part of their paycheck on booze, how does that equation work out?
Assuming that (like you) someone spends about 20-25% of his income on tequila, it means that he actually has 13-18% *less* spending capability. And this does not, of course, take into account the cost of wooing a new girlfriend (since the old ones leave you regularly for being a drunken sod ;-), asprin for hangovers, etc….

Looks like you’ve never heard of the 80:20 rule 😉

Down, doggie. Down! 😀
Man you’ll do know how to make your girlfriends feel like a piece of meat..;)

you guys should have more respect for girls …. you can see how our friend here is feeling hurt.
Y’know my girl friend told me that she’d leave me for ever if i don’t quit drinking …… man I’m gonna miss her 🙂
Man, I wonder who actually came up with those statistics. I mean, if you can actually get a PhD by coming up with a conclusion that men who drink get 7% more incoming rupees than men who don’t, it proves……
that there is hope in academics for me after all 😉
Heheh…do we have an acception to the case in Deepu..cos if this is the norm..then what can I say there are gonna be a lot of happy/unhappy single guys out there..;)

Actually I dunno..just depends on the individual..and the persons nature.
I can’t stand seeing my friend suffer like this. I simply *have* to put him out of misery.
Here, let me take the “problem” off your hands…..
(turns to “problem”)
Yo, whatcha doing this pm? Wot say V paint ze town red and leave puppy-poo to his newfound freedom?

BTW, nice userpic!
ok ok ..OK..exception.because…going to.. wah wah ..WAH!
well seeing as i cannot see that as much more than a coincedence, i am going to make a poster:
DRINKING MAKES YOU TALENTED

OK .. now lets put that theory to test ….
