This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

You didn't read my 2nd link huh
Chime essentially a bank tells you how much the average vacation ought to cost if you can afford to take one not how much each person actually spent. Nor would you expect spending to be even. If my boss spends 10,000 and I nothing it's less than useful to say we spent an average of 5000.
If out of 10 people 5 take no vacation and stay home 2 spend 1000 and 3 spend 5000 then the average vacation would cost 3400. 17,000 / 5 . Poor people aren't poor because they fly to Hawaii.
You seem to have a lot of trouble with this.
