[quote=Anonymous]OP - my Mom married my Dad who was very good looking but in end he left her a widow after 20 years of marriage with 4 kids and a stack of bills and no insurance or savings.

My two sisters married guys where they ended up breadwinners. But unlike dual equal income they carried load and with raising kids careers did not get far.

I don't want my daughters to end up with deadbeats. Nearly every girl I dated Dad sized me up. I am not money hungry for others peoples money. But I hate to lose my money. I also don't want to end up like my old rich girlfriend uncle the Firefighter who lived in a million dollar home back on 1993 and drove a Mercedes but ran to get us drinks and serve us while wife was in living room as he was treated like the help and folks would talk behind his back.

My one other daughter is dating a guy with a trust fund and parents are in one of those River Road mansions. Doubt that will last as they are young but that is a wedding I would pay for. Lucky his trust fund pays for college for him and his kids.

My aunt has a dead beat son in law what an anchor she paid off his student loans and has accounts set up for her grandchildren and he is expecting to use her inheritance to retire. He is a clerk in a cube and lives in a million dollar home. We all know it's his mother in laws money.

My aunt has it double bad she also has a deadbeat son she is also having to pay those grand kids tuition. And she put her own kids through school. The burden of her kids marrying bad has a 78 year old women bailing out her gen x kids instead of enjoying retirement.

Folks you convinced me I am not paying unless it feels right.
