Bankers and accountants last!

Ohhhhh. Most prestigious. That's different.

I translated it like Frank Sinatra - my way!

Interesting the way it breaks down in groups.

At the top, magicians (doctors, scientists)

Next up, authority figures (teachers, clergy, military, police, politicians)

Near the bottom, creative types (engineer, architect, lawyer, athlete, entertainer, journalist)

And scraping at the bottom of the barrel, the money grubbers (union leader, banker, businessman, accountant)

Nice analysis shiva, although I have never been called a magician before!

I'm still waiting for you guys to turn lead into gold.

And you'd think a perpetual motion machine would be easy if a few bright guys got together and really thought about it for a while!

Next you will be asking us to prove there is no god!
