Back in 2011, the U.S. Census Bureaupublished a report breaking down the median household net worth by age and in quintiles. Because I only think comparison is a valuable tool to get a very broad feel for where you stand, I've excluded the lowest and highest quintiles.
The PatauÃ¡ tree is a slow-growing type of palm tree that is found throughout the Amazon. Natives use the tree for many things, including using the palms for roofing, the roots for medicinal purposes, the fruit and oil (which is very high in protein) as a source of nutrition and the fibers in the palms for weaving.
The rainy season in the Amazon rain forest runs from January to June. Torrential downpours blanket the jungle canopy, flooding rivers and covering forest floors in muddy water. Brief periods of sunshine are common, but you can count on intermittent showers almost every day around this time of year. The average month has a cumulative rainfall of 13 inches during the rainy season, so tourists should pack plenty of rain-gear. Temperatures tend to drop a bit around this time. The average is around 80 degrees Fahrenheit, according to Fodor's Travel Guide.
