So many different positions on a subject that is kind of delicate. To those that have come out successful & claim to have found true love- Bravo! To those who are so naive and judgmental take a look at the reality of how prevalent this is. After all, it does an evolutionary base. BUT for our society now, does this evolutionary basis really seem all that relevant? No, not ALL women who marry are in it purely for the money or security I assume, but it definitely makes you question their motives.

I read a comment from someone who is 50 and married to a 29 yr old woman with a 1 yr old child…WITH a 1 yr old grandchild. See, for me being in the position of the child from the original marriage who has that grandchild that is the same age as their aunt/uncle it’s kind of hard to swallow. That means your half brother/sister is over 20something years younger than yourself. Logically this doesn’t seem like it constitutes a good formula for a healthy, happy family…but eh, when put in that situation you have to just deal I assume. I guess form the evolutionary standpoint it’s perfectly ok…because, after all, it turns out that older men chasing younger women contributes to human longevity…right?! Too bad polygamy is illegal now.

I agree with some other comments…this article sounds as if they tweaked the data to feed their need to boost their male egos and reiterate that men are important all the way to old age.

Within 5-7 years is your best bet.
