LOL...I find your "serial" label there to be quite amusing, since it seems so accurate for the rich!

I was also thinking about the fact that now, more and more, you see news reporting how married couples acquire much more wealth than their single counterparts, on average; and how Gloria Steinam recently married -- and now, she is a big advocate of marriage. A little late for many women who remember being greatly influenced by Gloria in the past! Work/work/work is all a lot of women did, and then found out: because they were in these low-paying, pink-collar ghetto careers like nursing and teaching, they got nowehere.

Do you remember the Doris Day (I'm really old) movie "The 7 Year Itch"? It was about how at the 7th year of marriage, both sides seem to start looking around for someone else.

I have observed that approximately the 7th year of any marriage is the roughest.
