CREDIT CARD DEBT DEADLY TO MARRIAGE
May 9, 2007

The Monterey County Herald has taken a look at the consequences of credit card debt and found, like we have, that surveys clearly show that high credit card balances are a leading cause of divorce. Whether this is because the spouse knows or whether it is done behind the other’s back.

The article comments on the nature of the jewelry industry by saying that “The jewelry industry will tell you the rule of thumb is to spend two months’ salary for an engagement ring. That’s fine if you’ve got two months’ salary lying around. If not, common sense tells you that going deep into debt isn’t the way to begin a marriage”. Unfortunately, we are seeing a lack of common sense in a huge percentage of people who happily go into debt, not knowing what they are really getting themselves into.
