[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not all women are reaching the height of their household income in their mid-40s. This is also an age when a lot couples start to divorce and divorced women in general have lower HHI than married.

Mid-40s and up is also when parents start having to pay for college (or private high schools if they haven't done private elementary & middle school) and that takes a chunk out of HHI.

And then there's the wisdom factor.  The older you get the more you realize what is important in life. Maybe women would prefer to spend money on other things, like traveling. Or fixing up their homes.  Maybe they already have a lot of nice classic pieces in their wardrobes that don't need replacing.

Or maybe they just look at the current ugly fashion offerings and think $%^&*(&^  this.

+1000.  I still love beautiful clothes and look great (I might add), but have one kid in private high school and another in college with no financial aid.  Even though we have high HHI, it's killing us.  No money for Manolos.[/quote]
