At long last, the news we've been waiting for. Time to put in your notice and book your ticket to Sun and Fun! A new study published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health shows that you needent worry about YOUR income and education.....just marry well! The study suggests that the education and income level of your spouse are very important indicators of your mortality, independent of your own education and income level.
According to this study, men married to well-educated women had longer lifespans, all else equal. The researchers suggest that the cause of this might be related to the sharing of information that occurs in close relationships. Well-educated people tend to be better able to take advantage of knowledge about healthy behaviors.
And the critical indicator for a wife's longevity? Her husband's income level or social class.
So if you want to live longer, marry a smart woman or a wealthy man!
