[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did you marry someone like this?  This would be a deal breaker for me.[/quote]

For me, someone who throws away money for no good reason would be a deal breaker for me.  That's the kind of attitude that keeps you from saving well.  It's one thing to spend money on something you need, but to spend money on something that you not only don't need, but don't have plans to use is just mind boggling for me.

And note, we have passports.  We got them about 10 weeks before the last time we traveled out of the country.  Before that we had passports that had expired about 2 years.  We didn't renew, because we didn't need them.  We renewed when we needed them and they are good for 10 years from when we needed them rather than for only 8 years after we needed them.

I can understand OP having an issue if she planned international travel and he dawdled on getting the passports in time, but just on the off chance that she'll do something she hasn't done yet in 7 years of marriage?  Waste of time and money and a red flag for me.   Taken the the extreme, this is the type of person that spends all sorts of money for things she wants to do, crafts she wants to take up, projects she things she'll do and they all sit around and fill up closets and spare space and never get used.  I dated someone like that who had a craft room filled with thousands of dollars of stuff that she went into a couple of times a year, for an hour or two and then never found the time to go back to things.  She's never been good at saving and probably never will.[/quote]
