- irishcoffee 7mo agoThe over. Rich people live longer.
- blurbleblurble 7mo agoEven when there's a polymarket bet on their heads?
- WalterBright 7mo agoYes. I add that google says: "controlling for substance abuse reduces the gap by about 60% for men and 36% for women". I couldn't get it to quantify the effect of obesity. There are other imponderable factors at work. For example, does not-wealthy cause substance abuse or does substance abuse cause not-wealthy? We are all the sum of our choices.
