ARE GAY MEN REALLY RICH?
Are Gay Men Really Rich? - Freakonomics * straight gay money *
Four years after g out as the first openly gay member of the New York Stock Exchange, Walter Schubert turned his attentn to the ter and ma history aga. The chang e not a moment too soon for the timated 18 ln Amerins who are lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr, queer or reprented by the pl, which nods to a range of other orientatns and inti. When Los Angel CFP David Rae first started as an advisor 2003, for stance, he’d tell clients he was gay as a fense mechanism — so didn't bee a problem when they found out later on.
And if you watch even a ltle b of televisn the days, you’ll get the same ia … So, y, ’s pretty easy to get the imprsn that beg gay is a ticket to affluence. Lee BADGETT: One possibily is a gay person says, well, I know I’m gog to face some stigma and discrimatn the labor market, maybe my bt fense agast havg an e disadvantage is to get a lot of tn. Also, gay hoeholds are said to spend 50 percent more on pet re products – so if you’re a dog, and you want to be pampered, havg gay parents seems like a good ia.
That gay men are more affluent, probably bee they’re more highly ted, and bee they’re much ls likely to have kids, which means they have the money to live really nice neighborhoods. So one problem is that not everyone who’s lbian, gay, bisexual, or transgenr is gog to say so when a stranger wh a Cens form knocks on their door. DUBNER: Okay, so if the Cens don’t ask directly about sexual orientatn, how do we know what we’ve been tellg you about – that, for stance, gay upl earn about 20 percent more than straight upl?

It’s a sub-sample bee not all gay people are partnered, and ’s also a sub-sample bee not all partnered gay people would want to disclose that to the cens. Badgett says that, while her data may not be so great eher, appears that if you took two observatnally equivalent men — same background, same tn, and so on – that the gay man would earn ls than the straight man, not more. In fact, earlier this year, Badgett and two -thors released a Williams Instute study which found that gays and lbians are more likely to live poverty than observatnally equivalent heterosexuals.
Now, you may be a b spic of such a claim ma by an stute dited to sexual-orientatn issu but, assumg ’s legimate, the next obv qutn would be: why aren’t gays earng more? BLACK: I thk there is some good evince that gay men do take occupatns that are, you know, they look more female like, and of urse female occupatns tradnally pay a ltle b lower so that uld expla a part of .

Now, aga, keep md, an analysis like this reli on self-intified gay men who live wh a same-sex partner but, among that group, a gay man was about 16 tim more likely than a straight man to teach prchool or krgarten. And I spect that that differential treatment between the gay and the straight applints is likely to be seen other ways, if we uld actually study this further to the employment procs. So when we ask a private, veiled way, people are more likely to adm that they would be unfortable havg a gay manager, or that they thk ’s okay to discrimate agast gays and lbians.
A study that Ericson -thored found that when people uld answer qutns totally anonymoly, they were much more likely to exprs anti-gay feelgs. BLACK: Well uld have negative effects on enomic out the sense that particular I thk givg greater accs to adoptn on the part of gay and lbian upl might duce them to suffer, if you will, the nsequenc of havg children, and of urse achieve the obv benefs to havg children as well.
As for the qutn that started this whole nversatn, om Danny Rosa — he wanted to know “what is about gay men and the gay culture that mak them so wealthy?
