Interesting article that unfortunately completely ignored major factors in decision-making involving delayed gratification.. For example, "do you want $5 now or $10 [in 2 months? If I am old, or in poor healthmi want the $5 now, thankyuvurry much. I am sure any investment advisor could offer limitless examples of needs/desires changing radically just from aging. So I could not buy into a he theory given, that people who can delay gratification as youngsters are more likely to be successful, given that All exterior factors would have to be unchanged to make a proper comparison.

AnneWimsey comments on Dec 27, 2018:

The loneliest I have ever felt, deep, aching, and going on for decades, was when I was married to 2nd hubby....."such a fine man", i was unable to even articulate what was wrong. Made me nasty, too. Now I know the difference between lonely & alone,, and do not look for validation from others. This is, by far, the happiest time in my 70 years.....
