You are a Quirky Character
You’ve found yourself mostly in the middle of the road, but you have enough quirky habits to not be entirely normal. It is normal to have a job. In January 2005, the unemployment rate was about five percent, which means that ninety-four percent of the country is hard at work. The unemployment rate has actually decreased from the overall average for 2004, which was five and a half percent.
On average, most people also own a home, and the median home value in 2004 was $121,800. Did you know that a median home value was upwards of $210,000 in California? But if you ever think about making a leap far from quirky into full blown crazy, you can try to beat the cost of the Hearst Castle at San Simeon, CA. William Randolph Hearst built this amazing home. It is the most expensive house ever built at a cost equivalent to over two hundred and seventy-six million dollars in today’s money!
College enrollment continues to hit new highs, as college education is becoming an increasingly normal pursuit. The National Center for Education Statistics anticipates an eleven percent increase in enrollment between 2003 and 2013.
You’re probably glad to be more than ordinary, but you’re normal enough to fit in. Sounds like a perfect balance.
