A few years ago I read a study which analysed this but I can't find the link. All I remember was among the occupations considered, actuaries were the least likely to divorce, especially to other actuaries. I think this is simply a consequence of the intellectual statifiction of society.

Thanks for linking this, this is as interesting as the main post imo. It's funny how most of the results are as expected,
actuaries as the occupation with the lowest divorce rate, while jobs as bartenders and flight attendants sport the highest ones.
What's up with gaming related jobs being at the top though? Gaming managers and gaming services workers especially.

I don't think it's gaming as in video games, but gaming as in Vegas.

If I had to stereotype based on US gaming companies:
-Long hours
-Relatively low pay
-Typically located around urban centers (so a higher CoL)
-If the controversies at Riot, Activision Blizzard, and Ubisoft are any indication then many game related employees are emotionally stunted and immature.
