65? I feel almost insulted.


Don't feel too bad. Money and looks should be all that matter. In real life it is. 

I'd say looks and physical attractivness should be about 200 pts max. And being rich should be worth 500. Then maybe race- white should be worth about 100. Then maybe first world status. So EU, Nato members and USA should be worth 50. 


In the end tho, money is all that matters. 

Bullsh!t walks and money talks. Then looks. If your truly good looking or beautful you can get by surprsingly well-even if your poor. 

But money baby. It's all about dem benjamins.

It started out looking like I was going to turn in big numbers, but the latter categories brought me down to a respectable 45.
Bask in my slight privilege, you scrubs. :ph34r:

Wow. I could go into a spiel about the victim mentality making people give up before they start anything with their lives, but it's all been said before. If penniless immigrants can come to America and become immensely successful, there's nothing stopping someone born to a single parent (missing category) in a bad neighborhood from doing the same.

It's more about looking at the equality of circumstances at the beginning. 

Some people start off with much, much more than others. Whether that determines success or not isn't the issue. It's simply showing who has the opportunities to succeed. A white protestant male with parents who are affluent or rich in the United States has a higher chance of succeeding (relative to material wealth) than a black ugly female who was born in Zambia.

-100 for black?

Was this written in the 1800s? Okay, I get that white is the dominant colour, but damn, that's a lot of points to drop on.

Especially considering that Morgan Freeman has already replaced the world's 'image' of God xD

Understandable. Still, I view things like this as damaging. "Oh, I've got that one thing that subtracts 500 points. Guess I'm screwed, so why try." That's the victim mentality I'm talking about - it's encouraged by this kind of thing. Couldn't help noticing all of the politically correct-victim groups getting swatted down hard.

Also, how is being Jewish an advantage? I'm not Jewish, but as I understand it, Europe has been getting rather hostile towards Jews in recent years.

Money. If you come from money, inherit it or become rich you are privileged. Everything else is really secondary or tertiary, with maybe the exception of physical attractiveness. However, most men are average in about every physical stat that matters- Height, golden ratio, facial symmetry and penis size. Most women are average in attractiveness as well but they can cover it up with makeup, high heels and other cosmetic illusions.

Money however is the great equalizer. In all aspects in human life.

As I've said. Money talks and bullsh!t walks. He who has the gold makes the rules.

That's why money and wealth should be worth all the sums of the other categories times 2. At least

I think this poll was made by an American, basing it off of Jewish-American stereotypes. You know, JAPs, the stereotypical Jewish-American Producer/Banker/Accountant/Lawyer/etc.

When it comes to religion though, it should have +25 Christianity (+200 if in the U.S.) and (+25 for being Jewish in the U.S.
