I love reading Men's Health, it always gives me something to think about.
A month ago I was reading to Judy and Brittany 100 ways to burn 100 calories (I think it was 100 at least...its been a while). Crowd favorites: making love for an hour, which Judy didn't seem to think was possible and the magazine said if you could do that then you don't need to worry about reading the rest of the ways.
Today we've got "Average Guy + Money", something that interests me very much now since I've got almost no money and probably won't for a while.
Average guy's annual income: $39,429
If he graduated from college: $54,069 (after years of teaching and coaching in a large district I could probably make this much)
% of men unhappy with the size of their paychecks: 49
How much the average guy is carrying in his wallet right now: less than $10 (I haven't had money in a wallet in a long time, haven't had any bills in my pocket for at least a couple weeks)
Amenities the average guy wants to add to ATMs:
1. Frequent withdrawal points (YES PLEASE)
2. Porn clips (hmmm)
3. Hot coffee (how about Red Bull?)
% of men who never balance their checkbooks: 53 (so Ronnell and I aren't alone)
Preferred way to pay:
1. Debit Card, 44% (thats me)
2. Cash, 28%
Percentage of guys who've given a stripper a $100 bill: 3
Average # of credit cards in a guy's wallet: 2.5 (3 for me)
Total amount he owes on those cards: $2742 (under 2 for me)
What half of men would pay for 5 extra years of healthy life: Nothing (what???)
What 19% would pay: $100,000
And more...but if you want to see it all you've got to get the magazine. April 2005 Men's Health
One side note: I read the other day that a man's brain isn't fully developed (or something like he isn't fully equipped to make important decisions) until the age of 25. I feel better about myself knowing this.

Andrew-
I'm friends with Erica Brooks.
Just FYI, I work at Men's Health and I happened to design that particular Average Guy layout.
Glad you enjoyed it...
