A Special Class
Tinton Falls, NJ -

Certainly - and we're sure you bring something special to the cadre of scientists, engineers, artists, designers, writers, innovators and musicians also included in this elite group. Just how special is the creative class? According to Richard Florida, professor, consultant and author of The Rise of the Creative Class, this demographic "earns $2.1 trillion, or 50% of all wages and salaries in the U.S., is the core force of growth in our future economy, and will add more than 10 million jobs in the next decade."
