I made about $14,000 that year as a mystery shopper, not including reimbursementsâthat's pure earnings.

Each person's sleep requirement is different. Some people find that they only need 5-6 hours of sleep, while others need 10-11 hours for optimal performance. The average adult functions best with 7-8 hours of sleep a night; however, it is important to consider how much sleep you need on an individual basis.
Most adults need between six and nine hours of sleep each night. Some people can feel perfectly rested with a lower amount. Newborn babies can sleep for 16 hours a day, while school age children need an average of 10 hours. Most people over the age of 70 tend to be light sleepers and need less than six hours a night.
