[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like since you've gotten nowhere with DH, and i disagree that you should just save for your own retirement and wait and see. It's time to bring in a financial advisor. I am assuming the financial advisor will ask for specifics...and when DH says "well my mom is planning to give/leave us $" the financial advisor will ask for details about the amounts, how trusts are organized, whether mom has long-term care insurance or whether her $ would be used for nursing care if she needs it, etc... I assume the financial advisor will have seen many, many family situations where expected inheritances haven't panned out, and may deliver a wake-up call. This may not lead to any clarity about MIL's contributions, but at least you and DH may get on the same page about the need to save for retirement and college. [/quote]
