Q: According to a new survey, the average person stops doing this when they hit 31?

A: celebrating their birthday

 According to a new survey, the average person stops celebrating their birthday when they hit 31.  Yeah, maybe you’ll let someone throw you a party for a big milestone like 40, 50, or 60 . . . but not anything in between.

Here are a few more results from the survey . . .

  1. People who were born in June, September, or October are the least likely to celebrate their birthdays.  People who were born in March or August are the most likely.
  1. The average adult gets eight cards and five presents for their birthday . . . and two out of three get a cake.
  1. The main reason people don’t do anything to celebrate their birthday is . . . they don’t want to spend the time organizing a party.
  1. And if you HAVE to do something for your birthday, the top things people want are a weekend trip, or a dinner out with their family.
