Gag.

He sounds financially irresponsible. Do not marry someone like this. [/quote]

They are married. [/quote]

Since they are already married and he's announced his plan to retire first, OP needs to face the fact that she and her husbamd have conflicting financial priorities (him: his kids and his retirement; her: her student loans and her retirement), so they need a system where they agree to equitably split their joint living costs basically forever, and fund their individual priorities as they see fit with what is left over.  This will likely expose the fact that OP's DH is not in a position to retire anytime soon.  I'd nip this in the bud now, OP.  [/quote]
