85% percentile here. Something tells me that I would drop a few percentage points if this site got updated.

I'm so average it hurts. Hey this is america though. Average in america means I can afford a house with 3 bathrooms, a car, and more or less all the gadgetry I want to buy.

What a croc of shit, I've known people who are well-educated and plenty of $$ who were/are complete assholes. "Class" is about respect for oneself and your interaction with other people, it DOES NOT come with a $$ attached to it. The link provided is using the word "class" in place of "dick measuring contest for conceded assholes".

Boy do I agree and I got a 90 average for a 2003 test All you need is enough money to live your life the way you want; I've got my books, internet, computers, friends and memories of living life Carpe diem.

It is what you accomplish, the friends you make along the way; not that you can stay in a penthouse suite or drive fancy car or live in the Hamptons.

Most people I've met who are well educated and don't have excessive wealth are classy people; having surplus money seems to bring out the 'I'm above the commoners' attitude that makes them that office controlled by the sphincter muscle.

89% = B, got to work on my prestige.

Edit: Hold on a second! Whom did they interview to rank prestige? Was it an online survey?

Top Ten:

  1. Doctors
  2. Lawyers
  3. Database Admins
  4. System Admins
  5. Astrologist or Physicist
  6. Chemical Engineers
  7. Chemists or Materials Scientists
  8. Network Analysts
  9. Computer Support Specialists
  10. Dentists

I was curious on this too - I picked "chief executive" just to see what it showed, and it was like... 70% or something. So obviously that is a total joke.

That's hilarious - Database admins as the third most prestigious career, tech support specialist in the top ten...

A Bachelor's gets top fifth?

I'll take 88th at 32 but degree and occupation seems a bit off

You can tell this is from 2003. Computer related occupations won't rank that high today.

Punch in your stars from 2005 and see how much you climbed in 10 years.
