beefche Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 This study shows that babies born in the winter are less educated, make less money, and are less healthy than babies born in a different season.I was born 3 days after Christmas, had a 4.0 in HS, 3.4 in college, have no major health problems, make a decent wage, and it's too soon to tell how long I'll live. Anyone else not fit this study? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I was born 2 days before Christmas. Graduated a year early and still graduated 14th in a class of over 400. Can't judge the less money thing as I'm currently unemployed..and well less healthy. Any health problems I have are of my own doing, not because of when I was born.

Prodigal_Son Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I'm a mid-November child. I don't want to discuss my "stats", but I definitely don't fit that mold (by the Grace of God, no doubt). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else not fit this study? well i was born Excatly in the very middle of the year, {summer} and have everything i need in my family and the gospel; the health is not good, the finances adequate, but the peace and comfort i have makes up for anything that may lack in temporal belongings or health,and as when its time to go; i dont actually care except for getting all my family members sealed together if possible, or at least setting foundations for them later in there own lives to take up the issue.:) But anyway; I wonder what the purpose of this study was?

Maxel Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I was born November 2. I sort of fit into the category... Failed my senior year of high school due to extenuating circumstances and got my GED (and placed in the 96th percentile). Have clinical depression and possibly other maladies, but remarkably healthy otherwise. Haven't made much money yet, but I'm currently in a job where I could possibly make $20,000 during the summer. Although when I was a baby, I did develop sleep apnea for a bit. Maybe that was due to my time of birth...? Interesting study. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moksha Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Babies born between late July to late August (the dog days of summer) are Leos, so that should embue them with really good attributes and abilities. Leo is the sun sign and that is associated with Celestial glory. Hey, I'm not making this stuff up.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Are you sure about not making that up Moksha. After all, you were born in August and therefore must be a leo. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee, I guess that is proof that no special attributes or abilities are gained from being born in any given month.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daenvgiell Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Leo's have nothing to do with it. I was born in August, and I'm currently in my second year of University... how does that show that I'm dumb? It doesn't! I don't currently work, but when I do work I get a decent income... I teach swimming to the kiddies. And for those not living in America or places similar... august is winter in Australia! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that, they began a steady decline till they were adjusted so as to not make the educational system look so bad.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of fit into the category...Failed my senior year of high school due to extenuating circumstances and got my GED (and placed in the 96th percentile)...I would argue that school exams are not necessarily an accurate representation of a persons knowledge or understanding of a subject and are overrated by prospective employers. There are many more factors involved in passing school exams other than knowledge and understanding of the subject. Many of those that fail really deserved to pass and likewise some who passed probably didn't really have enough understanding of the subject to deserve the the qualification.
