There are tons of single males in STEM making buckets of money, spending very little, and retiring early. Not only does that mean the profession loses a ton of people before they become senior and have time to train up the next generation, but it reduces supply of engineers and forces employers to keep salaries high.
- toast0 5y agoI imagine that would be worse with more Dual STEM marriages. I made buckets of money and retired early, but it could have been earlier if my spouse also made buckets of money instead of working in a field where the pay didn't justify the agrivation. In that case, there would have been two senior STEMers leaving the field early.
