You may recall from an earlier discussion question our conversation about the negative effects recessions can have on marriages.  We had a pretty decent discussion about it, but the issue hasn’t solved itself.  Today on Oprah, M. Gary Neuman will discuss the ways in which any couple can recession-proof their marraiges.  I highly recommend every couple, married or unmarried, catch this episode.  We will definitely be watching!  Be sure to stop by after the show and leave your comments.
