Default Re: Two-Income Trap

I also wanted to know, a lot of the book says if a job is lost by the breadwinner husband, then the other spouse can go out to work. But I know many women who wouldn't be able to bring in enough after years of not working to pay the bills. More than a few didn't bring in enough to pay the bills before staying at home. They stay at home because of a discrepancy in income. So what to do in that case? Also what about women who don't want to work, so why would they go out and get a job? Or how is it likely they can get one, if they really are not interested?
