The most useless survey ever?

You know how firms love to hire companies to carry out surveys on subjects vaguely related to their business. Well, I'd nominate this survey, carried out on behalf of Cahoot, as the most useless, pointless, waste-of-money survey ever. And what puzzles me even more is what connection does it have to online banking?

Yeees. My alternative theory, as they're talking about an extra hour in bed, is that banking is a misprint for bonking.

Regional differences emerged in the poll too showing 69% of Londoners would chill out for an extra hour while 40% in the North West would rather have sex.
What is better having a 69 or sex

Re: The most useless survey ever?

I don't think Cahoot wanted/ran the survey per se. I think a market research company did, and wanted someone to sponser it. Cahoot probably just provided the funding. The survey doesn't reflect the company, but helps the name get into the media and a bit of cheap advertising. Much along the lines of alcohol companies sponsering sport events.

Could be wrong though.
