Earlier this year women became the majority of the workforce for the first time in U.S. history. Most managers are now women too. And for every two men who get a college degree this year, three women will do the same.
Consulting firm 20 First recently reported the following data regarding upper income families:
- In 61 percent of wealthy households, the wife makes the family’s vacation decision, reports a Luxury Institute survey of women from households with annual income of at least $150,000
- Health care decisions, including choice of plans and providers,
are the domain of women in 48 percent of wealthy households; a like share decide on home improvement purchases.
- 22 percent of married wealthy women make all of the family’s investment decisions on their own, with two-thirds saying such decisions are made on a couple basis
- Women choose automobiles and consumer electronics in 40 percent of wealthy households
- Women control family real estate decisions in 31 percent of households

What exactly does GGJunior mean by "spicy conversation"??? I'm definitely going to check that chat room out tonight. ;)
ReplyDeleteLooking good ladies! You should do your show on video.
ReplyDelete1Ash- just really fun conversion! We add double meanings to everything said and just have a great time! please join us and bring friends!
ReplyDeleteShark- Sounds like a really good idea! BTR doesn't do that quite yet!
Sorry girls, not in my lifetime. No lady is ever going to tell me when, where or how (or with who) I can play golf.
ReplyDeleteMM- Call us tonight-- looking for great contrary views! :) and wait.. you don't want to play Tuesday 10am?
ReplyDeleteBlah, blah, blah, blah enough talk inside in front of a cosy fire. When are we going to see you on the golf course. Let's check out your swing and then we'll see if women are the new men when it comes to golf!
ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago there was an NYT article that suggested that one of the main reasons for the stagnation/decline in country club memberships and rounds played was the changing dynamic of the American family ie. women working ---> women making more than men ---> women in control of family decisions.
ReplyDeleteExcellent suggestion Anon 4:39... and to that end, GGJunior and I will be bringing our video camera to the course with us on Friday... so that we can provide definitive proof of female superiority :-)8 :
ReplyDeleteah yes - the world is full of crap statistics. Words like "wealthy" have no meaning without definition.
ReplyDeleteOf course the men defer to the wife on things like vacations and cars. Unhappy wives generally mean cold homelives. And there is no point in not letting the wife choose her own car.
All these statistics do nothing to change the nature of men and women. Men do not get pregnant - but women have manipulated the government to force businesses to pay for women who choose to get pregnant and want to stay at home with the kids for a time - forcing businesses to carry extra insurances and hire temporary employees to cover - raising the cost of doing business exponentially.
Discussions of disintigrating families could take months. Emotions and relative philosophy have replaced knowledge of right and wrong and nature.
Oh well.
