His baby face and taut torso may make her the envy of her friends. But a toyboy husband could send a woman to an early grave. Research shows that women who tie the knot with younger men tend to die before their time. And the younger her beloved is, the harder it is on her health. Men, on the other hand appear to thrive when they marry someone younger. In fact, the more youthful his wife, the longer a man lives.

Maybe that is why Matt Wauer decided to upgrade to a 26 year old chick!
Smart move.
As the old punch line goes...
” Yes, I’m young and beautiful now but some day
I’ll be old and you would be surprised what a boy scout will do for a pocket knife with three blades and a corkscrew!”
My guess is the "rich old men" can afford medicine and doctors that keep them alive longer. Well, that and the young arm candy.
If the Poor Old Man had the nickname, “The Human Tripod”, you would be wrong. LOL
I’ve never seen True Love expressed in such a photo before.
So far, my favorite post. You crack me up.
I wonder if I should post this to my Facebook page? There’s a woman on my Facebook friends list, whom I knew from jr. high school, who is always posting about cougars.
Depends on how much older the cougar is in age and more importantly in health and habits. High stress, booze binges and ciggies take a toll on those cougars too and can quickly move them into ‘old hag’ status.

An incredibly constructed, yet tautly architected, provocatively dressed young sweetie with a dazzling smile is walking toward you on the sidewalk. On her arm is a decrepit, stooped, warty, half-squint-eyed old fellow, expensively dressed, hobbling along on a cane.
They've just passed two doormen, in the near background. One doorman says to the other, "The scary thing is, she's the one with the money."
In my case, I’m looking for more like a President’s Day-New Year’s Eve kind of relationship.
Looks like my mother in law, except with blonde hair.
Told DH our relationship is bad for both of us. He just gave me the stink eye.
There MUST be some other factor not addressed in this “study”. I think the speculation about lifestyle is right on the mark.
Since the women in my family commonly live to their late 90s and I have no health problems, I figure the age difference sort of evens it out for us.
