Financial Accuracy

There was a study that was recently conducted which analyzed the correlation between education and leisure activity. They found that those with more education spend less time on leisure activity than those with less education.

This is so interesting because when you think about the American Dream people have long envisioned a world of lots of money and lots of leisure time. Well for the first time we are discovering that those with higher paying jobs are spending less time at leisure activities.

One thing that is important to realize is that those with less education have a higher unemployment rate, so some of this is out of their control.What was concerning though and definitely within everyone’s control was that those with less education spend less quality time with their children and exercising. This means that they have more leisure time yet spend less of it doing important things.

I just hope this is not a trend that is long lasting because I want to believe that we will once again be a people that values our family and progression and working for something.
