Total is the age you will be married.

Shit. I have, like, a month to find a girl and get hitched.
Of course, this doesn't make sense. You list a whole bunch of things that are basically *good* to have, and then say that the number you match is how old you'll be when you get married? So a truely mature and well-balanced person gets a score of, like, 42, and a schlub gets 12? What's with that?

Yeah, that makes no sense.

Maybe if they started with 50, and every yes subtracted one...that I'd buy.

[jackofallgeeks.livejournal.com]

Well, that'd give me a few extra years, at least...
:p

Hmm ... 23 as well. That gives me what, 19 months? It's feasible. But what if someone were to get a score lower than their age (and they aren't married)? What if someone who's taken a vow of celibacy takes the test? So many reasons why this makes utterly no sense.

I am quite pleased with my answer - 32... I've got another 10 years! :-) Which is essentially what I'm guessing on anyway. 10 or more.
