Business Man talking on cell phoneAccording to an article in Money Magazine a while back, apparently men talk on cell phone more than women. I found this quite interesting as women are generally more communicative of the two sexes and have been known in general to talk more than men.
Women spend more time on the phone at home, but when it comes to cell phones, men rule. According to Cingular Wireless survey, men spend an average of 438 minutes on their cell phones a month, compared with 377 minutes on cell phones for women.
The reason for this could also be the fact that there are more business men out there that travel than business women, and generally those that travel for business tend to talk a lot of business while on the go on their cell phones.

Press PLAY below:

In light of the current market turmoil that is happening, mainly due to sub-prime credit problems that hit the financial companies which in turn took everything else down with it, I thought I would share this documentary that I found online.
