The recession has changed the way many younger men are living, with stability and security at work and home becoming top priorities, according to a survey. It showed that men are putting a bigger emphasis on security in their jobs and at home in a return to traditionalism, including smartening up their wardrobes, although they are continuing to embrace new technology at a fast pace. "We have seen a clear move by men toward seeking more security in their finances, in their relationships and in the workplace," said James Bassil, editor in chief of the website AskMen.com, which conducted the poll. "It seems guys haven't been as affected as negatively as they anticipated by the downturn but they've changed their habits pretty dramatically to anticipate losing their jobs or careers changed and are saving more money and seeking more stability in their jobs than in the past," he added. The annual lifestyle survey by AskMen.com (here) included 50,000 men in their 20s, 30s and 40s who were questioned about how the economic crisis had impacted their lives. It showed that five percent more men than last year said stability and security were key attractions in a new job while salary was no longer the most important factor. Oy Oy |
