Well, HERE is a silly little article about a piece of research done in Canada that links alcohol consumption to wealth.
Yeah, I know a LOT of rich winos.

He jokes his extra funding will allow him to "buy more rounds at the bar".

So were the people granting the extra funding also drunk??

Well yes it's a silly article. but the piece of research may be correct - that there's a correlation between alcohol consumption and wealth. Whether one causes the other (and which way round) is another issue entirely of course.

"He says reasons behind the correlation could be stress of a high-paying job driving people to drink or that more sociable people are more likely to achieve career success. "
I drink...I get social...but I'm no richer for it. Maybe I'm not drinking enough....

I believe in this 100%. Just don't drink too much though or you will never make it too work!

I think the headline should state that "people of wealth tend to drink more than the average person"
Stats. What do they really mean?
