Easier to find a husband than to find a job in Japan

Forget about looking for a job; you won’t find it. Just find a husband to marry. That’s what the Japanese women are doing apparently. Well, it’s not just in Japan (and it’s not just for women either); marriage is certainly a good way to save money and to hedge your financial risk. This is especially true if you live in a city like Tokyo and New York where the cost of living is high. Now you can’t get divorced even if you wanted to (especially if you have kids). Whether we like it or not, this recession is bringing everyone together and closer.
