Techies are more likely to be binge drinkers according to an new study.

The study compiled by the journal Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research shows that affluent, highly educated and tech-savvy young adults are more likely to engage in binge drinking than many of their peers who are older, poorer and less educated.

Identified as "Cyber Millennials" these drinkers are well-educated, tech-savvy individuals aged 25 to 44 with a median income of more than $79,000 US. Most of them live in urban fringe areas on the West Coast and Middle Atlantic regions of the United States, but that was simply because they did not look at the heavy drinkers of the UK.

Ironically, while they pack in lots of drinking time into their lifestyle, the Cyber Millennials led the pack in risky levels of alcohol consumption, their other lifestyle habits ranked them among the most health-conscious segments of the population, and they had a lower-than-average smoking rate.

Apparently they own bikes, buy organic foods, and they're extremely health-conscious, at least twice a month they give their livers a real work out. (Correct, correct, sort of, twice a week minimum. sub.ed.)
