DC area: Richest and Most Educated
the most educated part came out a few years ago, with Bethesda as the "smartest community in the United States," due to the high percentage of doctors and lawyers. and i'm NOT surprised at the rest of it. but i guess being more highly educated takes care of the fact that people around here don't spend quite as lavishly as those in New York, California, etc. some do. and they do have the money.
So does being a doctor or lawyer automatically qualify you as being smarter than anybody else?
no…

I think the criteria that earned Bethesda the "smartest" community in the U.S. was the percentage of graduate degrees in general, not just legal and medical licenses. The high percentage of doctors and lawyers helped earn Bethesda the title of Jewishest community in the U.S.

Jewishest community in the U.S.
I was at a wine class last night, and overheard the Jewish guy who was teaching the class tell the Asian woman who was pouring the wine to "be stingy". I kid you not.

Well given that Wolfmother was in Atlanta last night, I figured getting to the wine class would be a little easier.
And sometimes when you're married, you have to do your partner's choice of activities. At least I talked her out of seeing "The Breakup".

Ooh, that would have been rough. I work with a guy whose wife apparently does pottery for her occupation. Which explains his goofy homemade coffee mug and devotion to hippie music.
