You know, when I think about all the times during my career that I wanted to ask for a raise and didn't because I figured the answer was going to be no. Boy, am I sorry I didn't ask. Hi, welcome to Something You Should Know. We start today with a survey that was conducted by a compensation research company called PayScale.
And they found that 75% of workers who asked for a raise in their current field got one. The survey found that 44% of the workers who asked for a raise got the raise they wanted, and 31% got something even if it wasn't for the total amount they asked for. Only one in four workers who asked for a raise got nothing in return. The big lesson here is that you should ask. Only 43% of the 31,000 workers that PayScale surveyed had even asked for a raise in their current field. And the lowest paid workers are often the least likely to ask for a raise. Generally speaking, the more money you make, the better the chance that you will get the raise. Still, it doesn't hurt to ask. You may be surprised by the answer. And that is something you should know.
You are about to be amazed at what science is learning from other animal species that can help human health and longevity. Things like why elephants almost never get cancer, But humans get it a lot. Or how pigs cope with pain. There's a whole list of these things that I'm about to discuss with my guest, Dr. David Agus. He is a medical oncologist and one of the world's leading doctors and pioneering biomedical researchers. He's the founding CEO of the Ellison Medical Institute and a professor of medicine and engineering at the University of Southern California. He is author of The Book of Animal Secrets, Nature's Lessons for a Long and Happy Life. Hey doctor, welcome to Something You Should Know.
