Lots of possible confounders. People are more likely to drink alcohol at night, for example.

 

 

Indeed.

 

I am interested in any studies showing that we hear better at night, however.

 

Where did that come from?

[Ralf11]

given that 'people' are a subset of a nocturnally active Class of animals, it is always possible that there is some chronobiology acting here

 

- moreover, night conceals predators well (from day active higher primates) so there may have been selection pressure rel. recently for improved night hearing  (let us all assume some constraint on around the clock auditory performance)

 

continuing with speculation, but shifting its focus...  there is likely less line noise at night (esp. in the highly urbanized condos & apts. favored by the audiophile cognoscenti) so that could be an effect

 

Without data, we can ramble on relatively unfettered in true audiophile fashion... at least until the Big Rip

Some people can retire with $300,000 or less.

 

that gives about $12k/year at a 4% rate

 

so, yes, you could, but...

[Ralf11]

or you could retire in NYC and just die real quick...

 

"sliding scale"

[Ralf11]

maybe live in the subway,

 

or sneak into MOMA and live there - pose like an exhibit

no biggie - esp. if they give a better warranty or other support
