[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hubby and I are both lawyers. I had loans from law school, he did not. He got family help for law school, I didn't. Our finances are joint so yes we paid off my loans. There was a long period where I stayed home with the kids and had no income coming in, so technically "he" paid off a lot of my loans. We are a unit so we never made this distinction. [/quote] This^^^ People who think in terms of "him" or "her" or "me" or "them" are not functioning as a unit. If your spouse has loans, they affect your entire family finances until they are paid off. Sure should you divorce, they are still the spouses loans, but who goes into a marriage assuming "we are getting a divorce". If you are not 100% certain in you relationship, then that is a issue you should fix before marriage [/quote]
