News of the weird in Libération: according to an American study published in the Journal of Labor Research [No Booze? You May Lose: Why Drinkers Earn More Money Than Nondrinkers], regular visits to a bar will "boozt" your social skills and networking capabilities, hence your professional opportunities. So, if you want to increase your earnings, hit the bar -- and the booze -- at least once a month. You'll make 10% extra if you're a man, and 14% if you're a woman.
The study goes on to argue that anti-alcohol campaigns are detrimental to the economy and society in general. Far out. I remember from my London and NYC days that many deals where initiated in the bars. Yet, somehow, the optimal proportions always got lost along the way.
