I just read an article that I can’t believe. . . sorta!
Did you know that people over 50 make up the fastest growing “heterosexual unmarried-partner households”???
1.8 million Americans over 50 are shacking up! This an increase of over 50% from 2000 to 2006!
In other words cohabitation is not only increasing among 20s and 30s it is growing the fastest with people over 50!!!
Why? Reasons cited include estate planning, alimony and palimony, social security, survivors’ annuities, and college financial aid.
You can read the article at Forbes.com. You will have to register and then search for “retirement and remarriage”.
