Do men struggle more with retirement issues than women? I have some data for that. It's not reliable data, but it's the only data I have. I'm sure there are studies out there on it. But looking at my comment section, I find that it's pretty much split right down the middle. The reason I think I can somewhat rely on my comments is, as you know, I read all of my comments. And I try and respond anytime anyone speaks directly to me in my comments. And every now and then a comment will slip through like when it's, you know, crazy. When there's just like, you know, thousands of comments. But, you know, I've said before, if you guys are taking the time to communicate with me, I should take the time to at least read it. I find that women are talking about the struggles with retirement just as much as men are. I think what it comes down to is different personality types struggle with different things. I don't think it's really even gender specific what we eat. I don't think it's really an age struggle with. I think it's personality specific. So you'll see a lot of people in my comments who owned businesses because that's what I did. And that isn't a guy thing. It isn't an age thing. It's that I think there's a certain personality type that starts a business. And that personality type is probably going to struggle with the same things that other people with that same personality type struggle with. So. I don't think retirement struggles are gender specific. I think they're personality type specific. And at least in my comments, I can't find any evidence that supports that there's any difference in the degree of struggles based on gender.
