The data from them can be interpretted in too many ways...although I'm not sure if this can actually be considered an interpretation of the data or a stretch to try to link the two things together. While I do see the "Wealth over Health" thing as an actual phenomenon in the U.S., this particular survey has nothing to do with. <BR/><BR/>Now if the survey had asked, "Would you rather have a personal trainer, nutritionist, and chef work for you free of charge until you got a body like Jennifer Aniston OR take the money that it would cost to pay those people but you HAVE to stay in your current state of health or worse", we'd actually maybe get some meaningful data about this topic.Jinxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03261333250856398074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605740188854986761.post-68778520577028006252008-01-30T15:46:00.000-07:002008-01-30T15:46:00.000-07:00Just another reason to not believe what is reporte...Just another reason to not believe what is reported on television... or in print or radio for that matter. And the media is unbiased? They can put any spin on any bit of information; it really is unsettling.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I would, like any other logical person, take the money as well, since I already have a perfectly functional body (even if it's not totally healthy). And Amber has a point -- wealth does give you some options in the health area. After all, those in poverty or in welfare in our country are reported to be the least healthy group of people. Of course, that was reported by the media, which may or may not have the story straight.Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13602731479850927241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605740188854986761.post-62916974616175891812008-01-29T14:50:00.000-07:002008-01-29T14:50:00.000-07:00I thought this survey and story were really stupid...I thought this survey and story were really stupid. Why is Jennifer Aniston the gold standard for health? Isn't she a chain smoker. I'd rather have the money too.

So in the end, by choosing the money, I'd get both. WELL, not her body, for the love, but health and wealth.Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06325285454048134101noreply@blogger.com
