Divorce is the largest unnecessary destroyer of wealth in the world

More than spending impulsively or making a poor investment in the market, divorce is destroying the retirement nest eggs and the lives of more than 50% of the couples in America.  If unhappy couples paid for a competent marriage coach or therapist, they would save their joint resources, legal bills, retirement funds and moving costs.  Not to mention the cost alimony, child support, therapy for their children, and increased rates of illness, criminal and drug behaviors, unwed pregnancies, etc.  Look for "The Unexpected Legacy of Divorce" for a stunning scientific analysis of the damage done to children as the direct backlash of divorcing parents. 

In my area, attorneys run $200-250 per hour.  A decent private therapist or coach will cost $100-150 per hour.  Public clinics often have sliding scale fees affordable to all.  You could buy 10 hours of treatment, approximately 3 months worth at weekly visits, for $1,000-1,500.  This is far less than even the smallest retainer the average divorce attorney charges.  For the ultimate in privacey and confidentiality, look for a Relational Coach and keep your marital asetts and your marital business out of court and out of your medical charts.  For the ultimate in privacy, contact worthyconsults@gmail.com if you desire assistance with making decisions about the future of your family.
