Have you ever listened to music that was so good it gave you goosebumps? Me too. It was back when Weird Al parodied 'Ridin' Dirty'? Man, that was some good stuff.

Anyway, according to a new study out of Harvard, if music has ever given you goosebumps and made the hairs on your arm stand up, that's actually a sign you're thriving! Researchers found that about 55% of people had that strong of an emotional connection to music, and they were more likely to be (get this,) healthier, happier, friendlier and even wealthier. So, for me it's time to get more Weird Al music,

They also found that women were more likely to get goosebumps from music than men and for most people, it happens quickly, like during the first minute of the song. So find the music that gives you goosebumps, and play it on repeat while buying lottery tickets! Or, something along those lines.
