You may get better results if you repost each of these items as a
separate question. At your current price, a Researcher stands to earn
$3.75, which doesn't provide much motivation to undertake three
separate research projects.

So sorry, I accidentally clicked Post Comment before I was done.  

The Federal Reserve reported that 1 half of households with people
close to retirement had less than 55,000 in savings and one quarter
had less than 13,000.

The above info (from this post and the previous post) is from 2002 on this site:

A study from Temple University (that surveyed people age 21-60) found that:
30% have less than $1,000 in savings
50% have less than $10,000 in savings
