While most studies on wealth inequality focus on the inequality between households, this paper examines the distribution of wealth within couples. For this purpose, we make use of unique individual level micro data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP).In married and cohabiting couples, men have, on average, 33,000 Euro more net worth than women. We look at five different sets of factors ...

This study specifically investigates the effect of an individual's unemployment on the mental health of their spouse. In order to allow for causal interpretation of the estimates, it focuses on an exogenous entry into unemployment (i.e. plant closure), and combines difference-in-difference and matching based on...

This paper estimates the effect of involuntary job loss on smoking behavior and body weight using German Socio-Economic Panel Study data. Baseline nonsmokers are more likely to start smoking due to job loss, while smokers do not intensify their smoking. Job loss increases body weight slightly, but significantly. In particular, single individuals as well as those with lower health or socioeconomic...

For this purpose, we make use of unique individual level micro data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP). Men in couples possess on average 33,000 Euro more net worth than women.

Unemployment of one spouse similarly affects the mental health of both spouses. About one year after the plant closure, unemployment decreased mental health by 27 % of a standard deviation for unemployed individuals themselves and by 19 % of a standard deviation for their spouses. Decreases in mental health are larger if the male spouse enters unemployment. Results are robust over various matching...
