Middle-Aged Men.com announced today that they hare turning their main focus away from sports-cars, sailboats, world travel, fine dining and the other luxuries that middle-aged men are known to enjoy and instead are offering information and services that address divorce,retirement, health and social networking.
Company President John Czar said in a statement that “Our research has concluded that most middle-aged men in America are not the silver-haired man about town living the good life, but instead a stressed, unhealthy and unhappy man, who is desperately trying to hold on to his job until retirement while trying to make friends and establish a social life to offset feelings of loneliness.
“The overwhelming majority of divorces in long terms marriages are instituted by the wives, especially after the children have grown and moved away. Often the husbands had no idea that their wives wanted to end the marriage and are left feeling blind-sided and abandoned. In addition, the suicide rate among middle-aged men is the highest of all social groups.
“Today’s middle-aged men are expected to live up to the unrealistic role models of the 1950s and 60s where men were portrayed on TV and in movies as the strong and silent types who never sought help regardless of the severity of their problems.
“There are few, if any, outreach programs that offer assistance to middle-age men and we feel this issue needs to be addressed. These men are our fathers, brother, uncles and friends. These are the family patriarchs and life-long providers. These are the men who went off to war went called. These are the men who were once portrayed in the media as strong, fair, honest and trust-worthy and are now featured as inept, cowardly, bumbling fools to be ridiculed by exasperated wives and judgmental children. “
Mr. Czar concluded by adding , “We are not abandoning our core business of the opulent lifestyle but instead expanding it to offer assistance to those who need to be pointed in the right direction to reestablish their physical and emotional health and secure their retirement.”
