[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is entirely up to your husband and his parents.

You have no say in the matter unless he is signing something that compromises your current assets or takes on new liabilities that would affect your marital financial status.[/quote]

OK, sure, but without knowing what he is going to sign, she has no clue whether he is going to be asked to sign "something that compromises your current assets or takes on new liabilities that would affect [their] marital financial status."  Neither does he.  She has a right to know.  But this situation is mostly indicating a problem with the DH.  He should be the one politely but firmly asking his parents to send him a copy.  If they are really crazy and won't do that, he should reassure his wife that he won't sign anything without discussing it with her first.  His "I'm going and I'm going to sign anything they tell me to" is ridiculous. Sorry, OP, I don't know what I would do about it, though.  It sounds stressful.  [/quote]

Someone who lacks financial sophistication needs advice but he is the one who should make that call with the input of his wife or other person who has his interests in mind. If he does not want his wife involved that is up to him.

OP describes his parents as "assholes" and if they are even remotely aware of her views about them, I don't blame them for not wanting her around.

Perhaps they don't trust her and if they are leaving him something it may be that they want to ensure that she does not get any access to those funds while married or in the event of a divorce. OP says "they" don't want the in-laws' money but that again is a call for her husband to make whether HE wants their money.

It is not that I am unsympathetic to OP's plight but these sort of family dynamics don't happen in a vacuum - there are aspects to OP's relationship with her in-laws that are coming into play in how the in-laws are approaching this is my conjecture.[/quote]

Op here. You are probably right. They are Jewish and I am not and they refuse to accept me because I am not Jewish. This lack of accepting his wife has obviously caused a strain in their relationship for obvious reasons. [/quote]
