Exactly. That's why people with absolutely no money don't have any problems!

Although I really wonder how the hell they came up with this data, there's some truth to poorer people being less stressed than those living in richer nations.

There's some confusion concerning why exactly it is that we decided to build civilisations and all, since hunter and gatherers seem to work less and enjoy their free time more. The Bushmen, in Africa, work about 10 hours a week (or so) in order to have enough food and other necessary goods (although this has changed recently because their land's being occupied by settlers)... and food is really all that's guided civilisation so far. Our ancestors could've chosen somewhere else to live, instead of remaining at the Nile, for example, and the reason why they didn't seems to have been merely political.

But, anyway, there are plenty of reasons that could explain such difference between Americans and Mexicans: one of them being the tradition of Latin countries regarding family. I see Americans leaving their homes at 18 and being somewhat embarrassed to leave later at times...

Heck, I'm 23, my girlfriend is 27 and neither of us is in a hurry to leave home (although my girlfriend's mother wasn't raised in a Latin country). Most of my friends live with their parents as well.

Yes, kids are practically forced to leave their homes at age 18 here. You look at other cultures (latin, chinese, etc) and the entire family, grandparents and all, live together for a lifetime.......here, as soon as we can....we throw our parents in the nearest nursing home. "Lata folks!"

By the way, I'm curious now: Is the situation changing, with the new wave of immigrants in the US, or do these immigrants end up doing the same?

I remember an American guy saying that she was jealous of Mexicans, "because they could move back home whenever they wanted to"

I'm personally going to live with my parents until they die, but then again my family has a strong mexican heritage.

It's much more normal these days for Americans to live at home after they've gone through college, or if they choose not to. It's still looking down upon but the situation is slowly changing.
