6:18 am
the differences. >> we are talking about sovereign debt versus a corporation going out of business. they are different initially because typically a country doesn't go out of business or cease to exist when it stops paying the debt. the default process is simply that if a country stops a payment or principal payment, that's considered default. often it's a political decision. the easiest way to look at it, a company going into a default situation typically has nothing left. they don't have the ability to repay. a country has the ability to repay but chooses not to for political reasons or economic reasons. it's more of a choice factor versus an absolute factor with the company. >> grease-- greece is playing a big role.

of the labor force. 17% of those over 50 have stop looking for a job mostly because they were discouraged. we are finding this has gone on for so long, it's really changed people's life courses. >> reporter: most of those who have found work have taken pay cuts or lost benefits and said they took it to make ends meat. bud light will replace coors light beginning in the 2011 season of the nfl. anheuser-busch got a six-year deal sponsorship worth more than $1 billion. a 1932 painting from picasso has sold for a record. $106.5million at christies' last night. the most paid for any work of the art. the previous record was $2 million less. coming up on good morning america, our expert has advise
