According to recent studies (click here and here), left-handed men make more money than our right-handed counterparts. This is news to me. All of the right-handed men I know make more money than I do, and some of the left-handed men who've made it big (Bill Clinton, George H. W. Bush, Ross Perot, Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford) had other reasons why they coined it in. They also probably never had to reverse their hand to swipe the metrocard through the machine on the subway, or had to stretch the pen across to the left-hand side at a bank teller's window.
