Drinkers earn more!

I knew it, you knew it, we all knew it but now we have data to back up the obvious: drinkers earn more than abstainers.

According to a new study drinkers earn 10 to 14% more money at their jobs than nondrinkers and men who drink socially at a bar at least once a month, earn an additional 7% in pay.

The study was conducted by Edward Stringham, Ph.D., an economics professor at San Jose State University. Stringham states that, "Social drinking builds social capital. Social drinkers are out networking, building relationships, and adding contacts to their BlackBerries that result in bigger paychecks."
