35.9% hold positions of responsibility
In this study, the scientists interviewed a representative sample of 1012 people, of whom 35.9% of those who masturbated frequently (2 to 3 times a week or more, i.e. more than 50% of the sample) held a position of responsibility. While those who were not inclined to masturbate were only 25%.
A higher average salary
Furthermore, 85% of regular masturbators had full-time jobs, compared to only 75% of non-masturbators. As for pay, 22.6% of frequent masturbators reported having dared to ask for a raise in the past year, while less than 15% of those who do not practice this activity regularly apparently abstained from asking for a raise. The average annual salary is also higher among masturbators: $47,076 (£33,700) compared to $44,006 (£31,500) for non-masturbators.
In short, as you may have understood, masturbation purportedly correlates with success at work. Why is that? Simply because it might increase and/or strengthen one's self-confidence and reduce stress. A completely free remedy that you could well start now to make sure you get your promotion by the end of the year.
