For a sport?

Do "they" pay you? Nope!

Also, "they" couldn't care less about you, me or anyone - just the plenty of $ spent at the stadium for tickets and whatnot.

There's much more to stress about living in this state including our money hungry governor and government IMHO.

Too bad the stress is not relieved by a free press that would ordinarily shine a bright light down darkened political corridors and translate all that lawyerly, alien to human, jibberish, in plain English.


Rutgers administration is another source of unending stress.

Received my mail-in ballot almost two weeks ago, voted, mailed back and did not vote for the "D" corrupt theives. Gotta try someone(s) else.

There's a time in life to be relaxed and a time to hustle. Hustle while you are younger and put yourself in a good financial situation

I think this is a great state overall. Anywhere that my dopey relatives can all have decent jobs must mean something

My thoughts exactly. I'm assuming most of the stress in this state is caused by commuting, whether it be daily train delays, long train rides, or sitting in traffic for hours. I work from home 4 days a week, and when I do go into the office my commute is only 15 minutes. Overall I have very little stress.

It would be interesting to see the geographic distribution of people questioned in this study.

Many don't consider the respondents.

I recently read something about seaweed farms off the coast of Japan and how they didn't help algae problems. Of course, I can't find it now.

My son works in Berlin and lives ten miles away. There's not a lot of stress in that drive.

Not everyone lives in Northern New Jersey and commutes to NYC.

I agree, and that's my point. People that commute into NYC are likely skewing the results. If you remove NYC commuters from the equation I would bet that NJ wouldn't even be in the top 10 of stressed states.

Wish I can move to Florida. Warm winters there.

I could move to Fla. permanently but wouldn't want to. November 1st to April 15ish is great for me.
