A new paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that highly paid men with degrees are leading the charge to clock in fewer hours at work.
  • Higher-earning men with college degrees are clocking fewer hours at work. 
  • They are the group that's leading the decrease in hours worked overall across the US. 
  • That's as men without degrees have been quitting due to perceived low social and financial prospects. 

Some men aren't being so quiet about working less.
