You had it all wrong.

I am happy about this statistic.

Finally, a win! People with unconventional beauty have data saying life goes in their favor.

Before the money, Elon Musk and Khloe Kardashian weren’t so stunning.

So, this data is onto something.

Your “ugliness” is your edge.

You aren’t mainstream beautiful.

It’s an excellent personality trait. Hold on to it.

The Research

  • Researchers rated the attractiveness of 20,000 American students at age 16. Then four times over 13 years.

The Result

  • Very unattractive respondents always earned more than all other participants.
  • The beauty premium is thus a flawed concept.

My Thoughts

I would agree — the beauty premium belief isn’t perfect.
