It turns out we're not as nice as we think we are.
98% of people consider themselves to be among the nicer half of the population, but it's not always true!

According to new research, people who rated themselves as nice had a strong tendency to be richer and happier, but were not necessarily more agreeable.
Two thirds of respondents said they rarely, if ever, help people carry heavy things for others, only one in 6 frequently donated money, and about a quarter gave blood or helped the elderly or infirm cross the road.
