On a different note, my dear sisters' husband was unemployed for 8 years and still is looking for that 'ideal' job, not willing to take anything less. She finally got fed up and divorced him. She too enjoys 'upscale stuff' and found having a dead-beat husband cramping her style. She's now married to a fantastic (and employed) guy and the two of them are living happily together as they have similar goals and work ethics and work together at having their 'upscale stuff' together.

Again, depends what you are looking for in life.
