they forget men die earlier and they can live off their benefits/monies.
I am almost 82, male, and live with my wife in a nice retirement home. I was lucky and was able worked full time till I was 76. Our children have done well, don’t need our help, and hopefully we will not need theirs.
There are about 220 living units here, only 40 men, 180 women.
Don’t know if that is statistically representative but very few, if any, of these women have not been well provided for. My wife, who worked out side the home for a short time before the children came, and I tried to planned for our old age. Social Security was never meant to be the only source of old age income.
