The spouse with the more stable job should consider taking out the loan.

"LOVE is the POWER" ...give Love. Say, "I LOVE YOU" to your spouse 8 times a day. To your PETS. PLANTS. Job. BUSINESS. Customers. Prospects.

Too many people try to do the new job, new spouse, new house, new car thing in 18 months. That's a good way to end up broke. We've got to resist the temptation to catch up with our parents in 18 months. Slow down. You have the rest of your life to play catch up. After all, it's just stuff.

I have had interviews and got close to taking a managerial job. I would consider going back into football.

What if you lost your spouse, home, car, a limb...what would your attitude be?

I consider acting a day job - it's not my dream; it's not my be-all, end-all.
