Social Drinkers Tend to Earn a Bigger Paycheck

from WDIV Detroit TV 4

If you're looking to make more money at your job, have a cocktail. A recent study found that drinkers take home more money than those who avoid libations altogether. Female drinkers earn 14 percent more than nondrinkers, while male drinkers make 10 percent more than abstainers. Additionally, social male drinkers -- those who visit a bar at least once a month -- bring home another 7 percent in pay on top of the 10 percent premium.
