Men With High Levels of Testosterone Spend More Money
Guys with higher testosterone levels along with manly faces are more likely to take the biggest financial risks, suggests a new study.
“Although our findings do not address causality, we believe that testosterone may influence how individuals make risky financial decisions,” said researcher Coren Apicella, an anthropologist at Harvard University.
Previous studies have shown that on average, men are more likely than women to take risks, and the researchers theorized that these differences could be explained by the role of testosterone.
A recent study also showed that stock market traders made more money on days when their testosterone levels were highest.
The researchers also scored players on facial masculinity.
Those who had the manliest faces invested 6 percent more than their average-face counterparts. Basically, if the risk does pay off financially, it could also pay off with the ladies.
She added, “This is because women value wealth more than men when choosing for a mate.”
Take this bullshiz with a big grain of wtf. First of all, only 100 Harvard students, ages 18 - 23, were tested. Of course they’re gonna be more reckless with their money, there’s a hell of a lot more where that came from!
And second, wtf is the last part about women valuing money in a mate more than men? Gold-digging bitch, please! There’s a whole new breed of dead beat losers and cougar-loving freeloaders out there these days, too. Better recognize. - Am I stuck in the 90s?! When did people say that, late 90s, early 21st century? Who cares, it’s Friday.
