Random User Survey #5
It's the holiday season! It's survey time! This one concerns the issue of household income. Please remember that this data is not correlated with your user account in any way, so your privacy and security are not at risk. Thanks for your honesty!
UPDATE: There seems to be a bit of confusion as to why I'm asking this question (I knew the money one would be touchy), so here's why: this part of collecting data so that I can tell advertisers more about my readers. Demographic information is an important part of being able to sell advertisements - if the advertiser doesn't know WHO he's selling to, he might not think it's worth the investment to buy ads on this site. So by answering the surveys I'm doing, you're helping me sell ads, which keeps the site going and pays the bills. And, again, the data isn't cross-linked with any other information - your privacy is completely safe.

Income, huh? Well you've asked us about every other thing you could possibly think of... gender, age, etc. Is the point of these so-called "random" surveys all part of a twisted plot to modify advertising ploys and then spam our inboxes? :wink:

Wow! We're a pretty rich bunch of geeks. I wonder if these percentages are going to hold up as more answer the poll, like the gender percentages did?
