[quote=Anonymous]You need to have a sit down conversation. You cannot assume that your / his money will go towards covering your parents’ care. Do you have siblings? It’s worthy of a conversation with them as well. I’m in the reverse situation. I make a LOT more than my husband and our money is fully joint, and yes, because of my earnings my investments and retirement accounts are about 3-4X my husbands. But none of our money is earmarked to cover care for either set of parents right now. Should one of them become very ill, where they would need full time care etc, there are many many conversations that would need to be had… with siblings, with the parents, a discussion of their financial situation, their care needs and expectations etc etc. So, no, you cannot assume this OP. And yes, you MAY need to go back to work to provide the additional care for your dad if that is what you choose to do.[/quote]
