    Probably because MOST couples fight about money and credit issues?

    I assume she just meant that she and her spouse were fighting all the time because of the money problems. It’s a common thing for couples to bicker about.

    It depends. A wife could be responsible for her husband’s debt and vice versa. In some states spouses don’t have to worry about that. Their debt is their own, but in other states, the debt of one spouse is shared by both and both have to pay it back. If there is a house in the picture, then creditors will go after it. Perhaps that is why “she” mentioned divorce. Good luck and God Bless!

    Has a lot to do with it, if you’re the one stuck with the bills at the end of the divorce.

    she probably didn’t have a high paying job or any job at all while married, and her husband was paying for everything. and alimony can only pay for so much. Can I have tan points please?

    If her husband is the one spending money and she has to divorce him to get free of debt.

    Sometimes a married couple have a joint credit card account.
