"Bald, white, and jacked, Scott Galloway is an action figure of the tech-and-finance overclass. He's an angel investor, a best-selling author, and a personal-finance guru. He podcasts constantly: his hosting duties include "The Prof G Pod," which offers business-news takes and career advice; "Pivot," in which he riffs on news of the day with the tech journalist Kara Swisher; and the self-explanatory "Raging Moderates," with the Fox News personality Jessica Tarlov."
"Among young adults, men are more likely than women to live with their parents; by their mid-thirties, more than fifteen per cent of men still live with their folks, compared to less than nine per cent of women. Men die by suicide at about three and a half times the rate that women do. Men's real wages are lower for the tenth and fiftieth percentiles of earners than they were in 1979."
Young American men are falling behind across education, employment, and mental health. Female students outnumber male students roughly three to two at colleges and universities. More young men live with their parents into their thirties, with over fifteen per cent still residing with family by their mid-thirties compared with under nine per cent of women. Men die by suicide at roughly three and a half times the rate of women. Real wages for men at the tenth and fiftieth percentiles are lower than in 1979. Unemployment among young men with bachelor's degrees is currently close to double that of their female peers. Calls arise for an aspirational vision of masculinity to address these trends.
