Good thing you posted this thread in communityBuzz. If you posted it in OMNI you'd have to include not just Demographics, but Republographics.
BTW, the last thing I graduated was eight grade, and that was under protest; they almost kicked me out of the graduation, and a classmate and I developed a plan (but we wimped out) to sabotage the ceremony.

Let's see how I measure up to the averages - though I had to do a little converting since I'm currently living outside the USA:
* Male: 79%
I'm part of the other 21%
* Average age: 42
Yikes! When did I go *above* an average age?
* Married: 79%
Yup. Does it count how many times?
* Have completed graduate or professional school: 46%
Professional school - trade school? Otherwise, I'm a college drop-out.
* Average earned income: $137,000
Not quite. I suppose that drop-out really cost me, huh?
Not as frequent a flyer as some of the others I see in here, but definitely more than the twice-a-year for vacations crew. I have not curbed my travel, but I have reworked the budget for each trip to include additional funds necessary for gassing up the rental cars and for buying airline tickets.

I use to have a "real" job! And a husband. Plus after growing up in Hawaii everything is cheaper on the Mainland.
