About this episode

The Wall Street Journal is utterly baffled why married couples make much more money than couples living together. All the data confirms that single people, divorced people, and couples who cohabit make much less money than married couples. In fact, the literature is irrefutable on this. If you care about poverty, you need to care about marriage. The colossal question is why. How does your back account or your budget, or your credit card balance know or care whether you and your significant other signed a piece of paper? The compelling answer will astound you. It has something to do with the Bro-Code—never date your buddy’s ex-girlfriend. It has to do with why guys care about a girl’s ‘body-count’. It has to do with the miracle of exponential arithmetic.  Don’t miss this offer of a free lesson in Scrolling Through Scripture just for Happy Warriors  https://www.wehappywarriors.com/scrolling-through-scripture-free-lesson Happy Warriors are not tennis balls floating down the gutter of life.
