I knew a guy not too long ago that got wiped out in family court, lost his kids, then came to work drunk, then fired, then just let himself go - about 45 years old at the time.
Be interesting to see a study done of middle-aged white men that married someone OTHER than an American-born woman...they seem much happier.
Did he commit suicide or become homeless?
Like to see rates for middle aged blacks, hispanics and asians too.
