Married people are happier. Adults who are married report being far happier than those in any other relationship status, according to a Gallup Poll published Friday. “Any way you analyse those data, we see a fairly large and notable advantage to being married in terms of how people evaluate their life” — poll author Jonathan Rothwell, principal economist at Gallup. From 2009 to 2023, more than 2.5 million adults in the United States were asked how they would rate their current life, with zero being the worst possible rating and 10 being the highest. Researchers then asked respondents what they anticipated their happiness level would be in five years. To be considered thriving, a person had to rank their current life as a seven or higher and their anticipated future as an eight or higher, according to the survey. Over the survey period, married people consistently reported their happiness levels higher than their unmarried counterparts, ranging from 12% to 24% higher depending on the year, according to the data. The gap remained when researchers adjusted for factors such as age, race, ethnicity, gender and education. Education is a strong predictor of happiness, but the data showed that married adults who did not attend high school evaluate their lives more favourably than unmarried adults with a graduate degree. “Things like race and age and gender and education matter. But marriage seems to matter more than those things when it comes to something like this measure of living your best life” — @BradWilcoxIFS

HEATED DEBATE PART 2 Adam: "You're a Putin sympathizer, it's crazy. You served in the US airforce yet you're a Putin puppet..." Vincent: "Don't talk shit about my service... don't go there, you're gonna regret it." @sostalksmoney and @VincentOshana get into a heated debate over Putin.





This is utterly brilliant. A student accuses @jk_rowling of being transphobic. This teacher skilfully dissects the claim and challenges it by asking questions. He teaches not what to think, but how to think critically. Watch until the end. You see the epiphany in real-time.
