It's a crying shame really,

that motivated people of graduate calibre ... even well-educated British citizens ... are finding themselves "twixt the devil and the deep blue sea" in the 'jobs market'. Meaning they are either too highly-qualified, or lack suitable experience for whatever types of work happen to be on offer when needed. Sign of the times, I guess!
Therefore, you are to be commended for your determination and flexibility in order to support your husband.
Congratulations ... and good luck in your new venture.
