Aging Workforce, Stagnant Youth: The Consequences of the Growing Age Pay Gap

A new NBER Working Paper, Countries For Old Men: An Analysis Of The Age Pay Gap by Nicola Bianchi and Matteo Paradisi, reveals, reveals that the pay gap between older and younger workers has been widening for decades across high-income countries, with wages of older workers growing much faster than those of their younger counterparts. The paper uses administrative and survey data to investigate this growing wage disparity.

Ugh. The .news TLD is one of the top 10 things on my "I hate this" list. Any keyboard warrior with a blog can just buy one, point it there, and call themselves "news"

Agree on that part,

But it is a useful summary of an interesting research paper considering how anyone under the age of 40 is miserable

Want to point out I’m 41 and in the same boat. I can only imagine I’m not an extreme outlier either.

42, class of 2000, one of the original 'lazy millenials' I have always worked harder for less and be told be grateful or we will make it even harder. I don't have a moral to this story.

Oh, sorry. Yeah, wasn't commenting on this particular article. Just the TLD in general. My bad.
