[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask to see your husbands history.  You’re only hearing about less than half the story I bet [/quote]

+1 And be sure you have your own bank accounts (checking and savings), your own credit card(s), and get your name off of his. Will be painful if you're responsible for his debts. [/quote]

I manage our finances and control our banking and investments. I see every transaction. He started with a $10,000 balance in each of his gambling apps. Since then there has never been an additional deposit to these apps from any of our accounts. The only banking transaction's have been weekly deposits to a specific joint account, our quality of life fund. There are no secrets. I’ve managed our finances for 19 years and I’m a Big 4 Managing Director CPA.[/quote]

PP here. Truly, I'm glad for you; but you're not the typical family with a gambler. [/quote]

And none of your professional achievements will guarantee he isn't going to drag you down and accumulate debt you don't know about.  Secret debt is a signature of an addicted gambler.  They hide and some also steal.  It starts happening at young age, I dated someone whose family member had a problem, it was devastating for their family.  Often times family doesn't know until it's too late and then have to come to the rescue of their loved one who is in serious debt that has to be paid quickly.  Gamblers cannot be trusted, no high flying career will save you from the destruction they bring.[/quote]
