Can I go ahead and call a bias? People who earn less, are less happy, or believe they are less successful than their peers are less likely to fill out this survey.

Conversely, how many people might say that they're happier and more successful than their peers, when it isn't objectively true?

Sorry, SoullessAutomaton: I just deleted a perfectly good comment of yours because I don't want it prejudicing peoples' survey responses. I'll undelete it in a day or two when I close the survey.

Ah, I neglected to consider that aspect. Mea culpa.
