There is no one drawing breath that does not have debt. Do not kid yourself people. If you get a bill each month for something, you are gathering debt. If you own anything, you likely pay taxes and therefore, debt.
Some people are in debt. And some people are insufferably crushed by it. Some people are better off dead it seems rather than try and pay off the mounting, crashing debt that has hit their lives.
That is hideous. It is a marriage destroyer, that is for sure. Any person that could live through a situation of crushing debt and stay married the entire time, is a person that is indeed rare.
