In fact, gossip seriously undermines each one of the aforementioned success metrics by propagating inaccurate information. When you take part in gossip you do none of these things.

But homes also mean a lot to people emotionally and personally – they provide a sense of security, comfort, and success. Aging in place can be good for your health because it gives you a sense of community and independence (Grabowski, 2006).
