My husband was unemployed for over a year after we moved to Columbus when I started my current job. We since then have learned to live on my income alone, even though he recently, thankfully, picked up a part time job (he's still in school) we are purposely looking for homes that will be about the same, maybe slightly more per month, than what we are paying in rent now, since we know we can sustain it on my income alone.
