[QUOTE]Originally posted by metinoot: [QB] But for many people in Egypt, getting married is not financially viable. Inflation has rocketed to around 23 per cent this year; some 20 per cent of the workforce cannot find a job, and many people are struggling to make enough money for the basics. "In Egypt, the average cost of a wedding is equivalent to about 43 months of the entire earnings of both the groom and his father," said Navtej Dhilon, the director of the Middle East Youth Initiative at the Wolfensohn Center for Development at the Brookings Institution. Couples who are struggling with financial difficulties are also more likely to get divorced if they do not have a strong foundation for a relationship, he said. Wael Yehia, 33, an accountant, was taken to the Family Court by his wife two years ago after he failed to provide her with a separate apartment. Mr Yehia's parents helped him marry Heba, 26, three years ago, but he could not afford to move them out of his parents home and Heba eventually insisted on a divorce http://www.thenational.ae/news/worldwide/africa/divorce-rate-surges-in-egypt Here's proof that brides demanding the wedding contract Mahr upfront are also trying to avoid divorce. Again when you are double the age of your man, and he relies on your financial assets not the other way around you won't understand why marriage in Egypt and divorce in Egypt is the way it is.
