[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not exactly the same but my in laws once sat us down at great length to tell us that some money they were putting in a trust was going to be in my husbands name, not mine, they didn’t want to end up supporting me and my new husband har har, etc.

My money is going into a trust for my kids so that it will be insulated from any future divorce settlements.

I will definitely tell my kids that they should keep the money separate and not commingle with marital assets, but I see no need to tell their future spouses about it.[/quote]

Agree completely but it was very rude-especially at such length! That was when we had been married a year or two and now we’ve been married 20 (very happily.)

FIL has spontaneously brought that convo up several times in last few years-he is now mortified and has apologized repeatedly (for the rude discussion not the decision which I completely agree is the right thing to do.) [/quote]

That's rude and quite mean, he doesn't have to rub it in your face - says more about FIL than you! [/quote]
