More men are giving up on working because they cannot find jobs in their salary range or in their field. Instead of taking work that might be considered beneath them, 13% of men in the US are just staying home and living off their savings.
About 13 percent of American men in this age group are not working, up from 5 percent in the late 1960’s. The difference represents 4 million men who would be working today if the employment rate had remained where it was in the 1950’s and 60’s.
