[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to let go of where the money comes from. It’s a joint asset now. The issue is that you disagree about how much money you need to set aside for BIL, which is also a joint problem. If you were mature and reasonable, you would work on that problem together. But you sound more like a spoiled child than a real adult. [/quote] In most states, an inheritance is not a, "joint asset". Having said that, it's concerning to me that DH isn't meeting with a financial planner about BIL. If he's truly concerned about saving to help him, he should meet with someone to plan. If invested wisely, it seems to me that at least some of that "high six figures" should be available to fund a downpayment, or at least make a big dent in 529 plans for the kids. Should also consider funding retirement savings if 529s are fully funded. Sounds to me, like others, like he's trying to protect that money for himself in case of divorce.[/quote]
