Actually, the sociological data I've seen indicates that the three aspects of men's lives mentioned by name here (health, finances, job success) are improved even if their marriages go bad. There's just something about approaching life as a team, I guess.

Being HAPPILY married, maybe.Actually, I've read an article (I don't remember whether on FR or elsewhere) claiming that even UNhappily married men were more emotionally healthy than single men, specifically as it relates to depression.
