StatWing Finding #2: Age & Cynicism

(Data source: https://export.statwing.com/p0/datasets/dat_c5PMCMjP3nSEEHLK9fUVIIgvtdgWgzHV)

As we grow older and wiser, do we lose faith in our fellow man? What effect does a lifetime of experience have on how we see others?  According to the data above, it looks like the older you are, the more likely you are to believe that people are generally fair and won't take advantage of you, are helpful instead of only looking out for themselves and that they can be trusted. Score for humankind!
