My situation was unusual there as well since, depending on what you
want to call it, I have been self employed or unemployed for the
past 39 years. I've rarely worked too many hours annually since then.
A couple of times I attempted to set up businesses or take a job
that would mean full time hours but never found anything that
worked out. But I wasn't on Government money. I always made enough
to pay the bills on my own, which got much easier once my pension
kicked in...    B)

I should qualify that a lot of my comments on women being after money
are from back a long time when dealing with young women looking to
find a husband (or sugar daddy). Probably when dealing with older
women with a lot more life experience they think a little differently
and more willing / able to stand on their own without a man around.
