there's a reason that women live longer, Mark. Let me tell you, it is because we are stronger and we are happier at the end of the day than most men, and that is factual, and you know it. When men are married to women who scream like you, they just want to die sooner. There is a new study out today that says women become unhappy as they get older. Well, the flip side, men get happier as life goes on. Now, the researchers, a couple of economists, by the way, they say it happens when we each turn 48, and of the major factors, um, coming down, it's all about money. Now, what's that all about? We're gonna debate it. Mark Rudolph is a no-nonsense man, and Tracy Burns, our Fox Business reporter, joins me to tell us what's really going on. Tracy, this is true, come on, come on. First of all, don't get me started. I know you've missed me, Mark. First of all, this study was conducted by mostly men, and when men conduct anything, they

talk about their finances because men judge themselves by this, the size of their wallet toys, dare I say. So, you put all your toys together in a parking lot, and it makes you happy. If they were to ask other questions in this study about spirituality, about the other aspects of our lives, that women would have taken over. I mean, first of all, a woman hits her sexual prime of 35. Things get much better for us. Hey, I'm 35. This is good for me. Alright, Mark, alright, go nuts because I know you're gonna go nuts. Well, first of all, you're presuming that that unhappiness in women begins in middle age. I'd say it starts when she's a little girl, when she's thought that happiness derives from shoes, jewelry, boob jobs, and pedestals. And what's interesting, oh come on, Alexis, and then you have boys who are taught that they're supposed to make girls happy. I was on the radio two weeks ago in Greensboro, North Carolina, and the host related a story he overheard his son and

daughter talking, so brother goes to sister and says, How come you always have money and I don't? And she says, That's simple. I have a boyfriend and you have a girlfriend. The fact of the matter is boys are taught that they're supposed to make women happy. He's actually living in the dark ages. There's that. I'm not living in the dark ages. This is reality. And if either of you women has ever dated women, you would know what I'm talking about, but you pretend that you don't know what I'm saying. So, what's happening in middle age? What's happening? What's happening in middle age here is that women who bring 70 percent of divorces are divorcing the men that they never wanted to marry to begin with. And so now, that's what's making the men happy. That's interesting because we control the household spending, don't we? Because we're working more than ever. All right, let's get back to the survey though, all right? Because basically what they're

saying is that we are happier in our early adult life and that women are more likely than men to fulfill their aspirations earlier related to material goods and family. That is true, wouldn't you say, Tracy? And a good thing. It takes men longer to figure out what they want to do in life. Well, I just think this whole notion of basing your happiness on material goods is part of the problem, hence part of the reason that this thing was run by men in the first place. If there were women on the page, if there were women on the panel, they would, I mean, ask any woman if she would choose her car over her children, and she'd take the kids any day. Whereas I would question a lot of men out there, quite frankly, Tracy. I guess there's a reason that women live longer, Mark. Let me tell you, it is because we are stronger and we are happier at the end of the day than most men, and that is factual, and you know it. When men are married to women who

scream like you. They just want to die sooner when you have any. When you have women comparing their engagement rings to show off who got the most carrots. Don't tell me that women don't compete. Don't tell me that women don't compete on material possessions about that kind of stuff. Women compete on houses, divorce settlements, carrots, country clubs. Women compete on money all the time. Give me a break. Wait a second, women in your life, buddy. What, Mark? Wait a second. The stature of a lot of men is measured in the car they drive, the golf country club they belong to, and very much the place they live in. You have to admit that. And whether or not their wives are staying at home and not working. That's exactly what I said at the beginning. That's because men are taught that the way the men are taught that they have to make women happy. The fact of the matter is you can't make anybody happy. You have to make yourself happy. Happiness is a byproduct of achievement.

so for women to say that they're unhappy, it's their own fault. Anybody who says he's unhappy is his own fault. Everybody has to make himself or herself. He's such a bloody headache. Yeah, I mean, where are you from? Where are you from, dear lord? I would never in a million years teach my girls that they have to grow up to be reliant on a man, as you can well imagine. I would never teach myself. That's wonderful, but Tracy, you're the same one. You're the same one who bragged that she's so strong and so tough and doesn't need a man's money, yet you're taking alimony. I have three children, Mark. So, but you don't need a man's mind.
