Dawn Spinner Davis, 26, a beauty writer, said the downward-trending graphs began to make sense when the man she married on Nov. 1, a 28-year-old private wealth manager, stopped playing golf, once his passion. “One of his best friends told me that my job is now to keep him calm and keep him from dying at the age of 35,” Ms. Davis said. “It’s not what I signed up for.”
This is an excerpt from a NYTimes.com article today on the poor girlfriends and wives of suddenly poor bankers. My dear Dawn, don’t you remember your marriage vows? I believe they read ‘for better, for worse’. So actually you did ‘sign up’ for this when you married your banker. The girls in NY may be very pretty but my god, they have their heads screwed on sideways if this is the way they carry on.
