The wealthy have always had an advantage contracting a marriage and ever shall. Why do we need "a new study" to permit us to acknowledge an obvious fact known throughout history? This is precisely the kind of IYI behavior highlighted by @nntaleb

Serious question: I can’t tell if you’re joking.

My points: 1. Wealth = Marriage Advantage. 2. 1 is obvious 3. Joke to believe we need academics to tell us such things i.e., falsely elevates dubious authority over common knowledge 4. Evidences IYI per

If you believe in “common knowledge,”why do you go to a real doctor? Moreover, read the original tweet: this represents a reversal in prevailing social science wisdom. Moreover, this holds for all male workers, not just the wealthy. This isn’t about the rich.
-
I only go to the doctor for what I cannot do for myself. The same principle I hold for common knowledge. I was reacting to Claire's tweet, BTW. So I will read the underlying as you rightly suggest.

Naw. Don't. You'd had to have taken grad courses in statistics to know or care that fixed effects stuff.

I don't have a degree in or related to statistics (and likely won't do as my plans on my degree are solidified) but I am extremely grateful for the research that you provide us with. I feel like I learn so much every day. Thank you.

I wasn’t willing to cohabitate without a plan to marry. I make more money than my husband and likely always will. I was engaged to people who make more but it wasn’t a good fit. Marriage isn’t supposed to be about money. It’s a partnership
-
Cohabitation is different relationships for different people. Cohabitation w/ marriage, popular among ppl w/ higher incomes, doesn't produce the higher divorce rates normally associated w/ cohabitation in the US. NB
@DecideOrSlide -
I wouldn’t call us high income. I work at a non-profit and I make the higher income lol. I’m a social worker. I just don’t believe in divorce without specific things happening and so I waited until I 100% knew. We both did. I consider myself lucky I married an alpha male
-
I honestly don’t blame the mgtow movement. The majority of women appear so untrustworthy. I’ve watched men be belittled into staying in horrible relationships and it sickens me. I read dr Laura’s proper care and feeding of husbands. We all have the ability to be good wives if...

If feminists really wanted to help women, they would teach men to treat themselves with respect.
-
Men should already know how to respect themselves. They should learn that from their fathers. A woman cannot teach a man to be a man. Problem is that they aren’t being taught anymore. Moms baby them and create no alpha males

Why do men with earning potential marry more often, considering the massive expense of divorce?
-
What's the alternative?
-
Staying single or cohabitation? Perhaps high-status women whom high earning-potential men desire will not accept cohabitation or casual relationships?
-
Sometimes you find, or think so, a good woman. I never thought of a relationship through a divorce lens. And married men feel more responsible for the wellness of the family. I think it is pretty positive.

I know it's super improper in a scientific tread, but my personal experience is that marriage improves one's working ability. Less drinking, less drugs, and more scheduled life. Started earning more. Guess I'm not the only one.
-
My personal experience as a never-married man is that growing up improved my working ability. I worked the most/studied hardest when I lived alone.
