All I can say is, that I believe in "for better or for worse." It seems many people show their true colors in times of hardship - either they love and support you through the difficult times or they resent you and blame you for the problems. If you can work on solutions, rather than fingerpoint, you can get through it - remember your partner is your ally in this.

You and your husband need to look at priorities right now. Get your food and pay rent and utilities, drop cable television, cell phones and things that arn't necessary. Cook from scratch if you have to. Real love means sticking by each others side. My husband and I both lost our jobs in September. He has had diabetic complication and we need our medical which is costing a fortune, but he is certainly a priority right now.

Sit together and talk rationally, realize what is truly important and that you both have to sacrifice.

One of the main fights that break relationships up...is money....

I haven't been hit by the economy yet....but, will within the next 6 months....At least I have some warning....so, that I can plan.

My boyfriend just got laid off and it has brought us closer together. He is moving down here to live with me and join the family business in the oil field. Which is good for me cuz I didn't want to move to cold *** Chicago.

Did you see the Evening News tonight? There were scads of tent people in California and Oregon and Im sure there are more around the country.
They said they never dreamed they would end up here.
All had good jobs. Now they are gone forever. They have no hope. Take care of your money.

My older sister and her husband lost their business. They have two seven year olds, a mortgage payment, a vehicle payment, lost their health and home insurance, and they have a loan that they are still paying off. I don't know what they are going to do. I am so sad for them. They were doing so good. :(
