It’s common knowledge that men earn more money than women. Actually the ‘wage discrimination’ doesn’t stop here. A recent study conducted by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis showed that physically attractive people commonly earn 5 percent more than their less attractive colleagues. Among men, height is the most valued trait, every inch a men is above the national average, his salary increases by 1,8 percent. For women, it’s slenderness. Obese women earn up to 17 percent less than their slimmer counterparts. The mission for less given applicants is to convince their future employer with a more attractive personality, beside the required qualification.
