Breaking Up: Now Even More Awkward And Painful!

Breaking up is hard to do. But breaking up during a mortgage crisis is even harder:

"There is a whole new aspect of divorce that most couples never had to face," explained Janell Weinstein, a partner in the law firm of Federbusch & Weinstein in New Jersey. "Many couples are forced to live under the same roof because they can't afford to move on until their home gets sold. This can go on for months or even years as the real estate market across the United States slows down tremendously."

Awkward! I guess the lesson here is clear: stay together no matter what. (via SFGate)
