This. This situation is a good example of how "separate finances" for married couples don't exist.

You obviously did not read the response on page 6 to post 14.51.
Signed, the happily married couple of wonderful separate accounts! To each their own.  :lol: [/quote]

Everyone ignored your dumb response because you're talking about separate accounts, whereas the issue here isn't separate accounts it is viewing money, as PP put it, in separate buckets.

I'd ask if you got the difference, but you probably don't, as you're not that bright.

Bright enough to retire anytime I want and create/run a successful business at early age. What say you? (Enjoy your W-2 wage job reporting to a boss you dumb idiot  :lol: )
Anyway, in OPs case she should have separate buckets and separate accounts. If not, she will get hosed financially in the future.

:lol: [/quote][/quote]

I am not a W-2 employee and I do not have a boss.  I also own my own business.

If you are a CPA like you claim, you are a joke.  You are probably have the same level of intelligence of the financial professionals and lawyers that OP supposedly consulted with before she got married.  OP's issue is that if she stays married, the "separate bucket" thing will no longer work because her husband does not have an adequate level of savings to even fund his own retirement.  His bucket is basically empty.  PPs are pointing out that OP deluded herself early on by thinking that her husband's financial choices would not eventually impact her. Now, she will either have to accept lousy standard of living or come out of pocket and basically bankroll him.  It is further complicated because they have a second marriage and four kids are involved.

OP's situation has no bearing on your supposed situation - a childless couple who have separate accounts and adequate savings.  Obviously, you tried to thread hijack because you want to feel sooooo smart, even though your posts betray you as being anything but intelligent.  Hahahah.  I'm sure glad you're not my CPA.

I won't be responding to you again, because you are comically stupid.[/quote]

Says a low wage earning man-child who claims to own a business. You could not afford me as your CPA. Jealous much! Enjoy the evening! :lol: [/quote]

I am a NP but wtf?  This exchange proves why moderated forums have value.  I can't believe I wasted my time reading this garbage.  What are you, 12?[/quote]
