Maybe American men should skip a day of shaving, especially when interviewing for a job.

    Sporting a mustache may improve your chances of landing a higher paying job, according to a study commissioned by financial services provider Quicken and the American Mustache Institute which admittedly represents people opting for facial hair.

    The study found that mustached Americans earned 8.2% more on average than those with beards and 4.3% more than the clean shaven.

    But the news is not all good. Mustached Americans also tended to spend 11% more and save 3% less than their collective counterparts, according to the study, titled "Saving and Spending Patterns of Mustached Americans."

    "If efficiencies in financial management could be realized in the near-term  it's highly probable that over the next four to five years, we will see mustached Americans' savings rate grow to surpass their bearded and shaven peers," research consultant Hans Menjou-Bartchen said in a statement.

    The study was conducted during the first six months of 2009, examining a random sample of 2,000 mustached American men along with 2,000 bearded and 2,000 clean-shaven peers.

    或许美国人应该试着跳过一天不刮脸，尤其是在面试时。

    根据一项由金融服务提供商奎肯和公认的为人们面部毛发做选择的美国八字胡协会授权的调查研究表明，留着八字胡可能会增加你得到一份高薪工作的机率。

    研究发现蓄八字胡的美国人平均比留络腮胡者多挣8.2%,比不留胡须者多挣4.3%.

    但也有坏消息。根据名为"美国八字胡者的存钱和花费模式"蓄八字胡的美国人也有比与之对应的刘络腮胡或不留胡须者多花11%而少存3%的倾向。

    "如果近期他们能注意有效的财务管理……那么在接下来的四五年间，我们很可能看到美国蓄八字胡者的储蓄远远高于他们同龄的络腮胡或不留胡须者"研究顾问汉斯·门尤巴特陈在一项声明中说。

    这项研究在2009年的头六个月实施，观察了随机抽取的同一年龄段的2000名蓄八字胡的美国人及2000名留络腮胡者和2000名不留胡须者。
