Good news for those of us who enjoy the occasional (or maybe even frequent) after work cocktail: tipping back a few can help fill your wallet.
Drinkers earn 10 to 14% more money at their jobs than nondrinkers - and men who drink socially, visiting a bar at least once a month, bring home an additional 7% in pay, according to a new study.
“Social drinking builds social capital,â€

yea, that's just it... if you really want to drink, you buy your own and drink at home (or a friend's house). Drinking at restaurants/clubs is for the social aspects, not to get drunk... otherwise it's way too expensive.
And what's with all you nondrinkers? Alcohol is the social lubricant that keeps the world going round!

Nah. I'm not exactly a drinker either, though I think Pev will agree, when I do drink I drink just a little too much. But I think that's only because I don't get hang overs at all.
I know when to stop, but only stop if I want too.
