Poor Economy Affecting Divorcing Couples

By Christopher Annunziata

The AP has an interesting article about the effect of the economy on divorced couples. I think the title of the article is a bit deceiving, “Couples staying together because of poor economy,” because the people in the article are legally divorced and thus, no longer couples staying together. That would imply some relationship beyond passing each other in the hall and mumbling expletives.

Anyway, the content is quite interesting. Especially the couple who doesn’t speak, except through their lawyers. Apparently, they can afford legal bills necessary to negotiate who gets to do laundry and when, but can’t find money for rent?
