   Marriage, Wealth, and Happiness with UVA's Brad Wilcox

   Why do educated professionals still marry while marriage declines elsewhere? Does marriage build wealth, stability, and happiness - or do successful people simply marry each other? In this in-person conversation, Matt Miner sits down with UVA sociologist Dr. Brad Wilcox, author of Get Married, to discuss the marriage premium, class divides in family life, cohabitation vs. marriage, children's outcomes, and whether marriage still serves as the cornerstone of a flourishing life. They also tackle elite "luxury beliefs," why family structure matters economically, and what young professionals should do if they want both career success and a strong home life. This episode is about marriage - but it's also about money, meaning, and the future of American culture. For more information, visit the full show notes at https://workpantsfinance.com/051
