I guess that number makes since to me. Seems like there would be a good bit that have to retire at 52 due to health issues and another bit that works till 74. With average average being 65-67 I would say 61 sound about right.
I’m old at this point (39) so I’m not going to pretend to really know the thoughts of young dudes. However, I still feel “strong and stoic” is still the societal and possibly more important dating scene preference.
I think society and women still do outwardly show a preference for a strong and a “tough it out” man. Even if it’s not fully true I still think it’s true enough for young men to see it and think that is what will get them a partner.
It’s for sure better than it was 20 years ago and FOR SURE better than 40 years ago. Just saying that I still think were pretty far from the finish line.
I was super into chasing the highest possible saving accounts. I’ve always used this link when I was shopping.
I’ll say that it can be great to get a little higher % but there is also value in keep it simple. I think at my worst I had 7 entirely separate savings accounts (not counting checking or investing). I now have 2 and I’ll probably merge them in the next few months.
It would be good for you to consider your limits on what you’ll chase. If you find account that will give you an extra 0.1% it doesn’t make since to change but 2% likely does. However, if it’s 2% higher but it has a $500 limit maybe that doesn’t make since.
I’m now mainly using Ally and I really do like their bucket system.
I’ve never thought about it but I think I have this bias. It’s something I’ll try and think on and correct because it’s dumb.
If someone was describing their friend that posts to Instagram 20 times a day I would 100% picture a woman. If they told me it was a dude it would have bumped me a little.
It’s probably tied to that old (incorrect) thought that women talk more than men.
