[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up with a family that always had money stress and I couldn't live with a man like that. I'm not really understanding. Does he contribute to a 401k at least?[/quote] He does now, as of maybe a year ago. I have a couple hundred thousand in mine, which isn't enough either. We've talked tonight- things are going to change, because the stress is really becoming overwhelming. Thanks everyone. [/quote] Keep in mind that a couple hundred thousand saved puts you in the rare minority of Americans. Most don't even have $100k at retirement. Glad you had the talk with the husband, but don't let DCUM folks panic you that you're in a huge hole![/quote] The women in my family live until their mid- to late-nineties- I need to be prepared! Both sets of grandparents required very expensive care at the end of their lives (30 years post-retirement!), and I've seen how much it can cost. [/quote]
