U.S. marriage rates have reached a 150-year low, according to the study, which was conducted between 2012 and 2017.
Researchers analyzed opposite-sex couples, comparing the incomes of “potential” male spouses with those of men who married women of a similar demographic and found that men who haven’t tied the knot earned 58% less than those who did get married.
