lol... no. I have nothing against the fine and noble profession of ditch digging. I only used it as an illustration of employment on the lower end of the pay scale than a job like civil engineer.
My post had nothing to do with employment or jobs, other than to muse as to whether a couple who were more affluent were more susceptible to divorce as a result of economic downturns (unemployment of a spouse, perhaps) than a less affluent couple. My theory is that the more affluent couple probably has more "stuff" and more debt, and that the economic disruption has a bigger impact on them.
I think it was Alabama who sang:
Well somebody told us wall street fell
But we were so poor that we couldn't tell.
