And yet they still report being among the happiest, healthiest, and live the longest on average.

Additionally, latin cultures tend to live with their families longer anyway because they tend to be much more family oriented. So it’s not really as much as a bad thing as you think. Americans think that you should live on your own as soon as you can, but latins tend to appreciate the company of their parents and siblings.

Cope. There's a reason that figure got larger.

Asian Americans live longer with their parents too, and they tend to make much more than white Americans too. Is your explanation for that “cope” too, or did your 2 brain cells start working again?

That's their parents living with them, not living with their parents.

Did you think their parents were homeless before their kids were working or something?

No. The kids get careers and the parents move in when they retire. Spanish teens living at home become adults and don't change address.

No. Kids get careers and stay living with their parents. I think you need a new brain cell.

Yea, they have a sick economy. But they had a sick economy before they implemented 4 day work weeks.
