5 Bizarre things you didn't know about earning money

So you have diligently worked up a sweat on your upper lip to finish your studies with nice grades. Okay, you gave up on graduating cum laude a few years ago (the parties were a bit too fun for that), but an average of 7.5 would be a nice first step into the job market. Wrong. You would have been better off getting your teeth whitened, or becoming a man because that really helps you move forward.

1. Men earn more

For every euro a man earns, a woman receives 83 euro cents. For the same work, yes. And the same number of hours. At least.

2. Tall

The taller you are, the more you earn. Preferably about five centimeters above the national average.

3. Native

Another thing you can do very little about. But if you are an immigrant, the chance that you will even be invited for a job interview is half as small.

4. The teeth, the teeth, the teeth

The whiter and cleaner the teeth, the more successful the woman. If you are in doubt about braces; do it. It will pay off.

5. There is hope

Despite all the research and incredibly stereotypical prejudices; the more confident you are, the greater the chance of promotion. If you believe in yourself, others will be inclined to do so as well. And maybe those himmelhochzeichende Louboutins will help you take a step in the right direction. I would say; go and buy, you will earn that back with a smile with that enormous salary increase that you will get thanks to your height and confidence.
