[quote=Anonymous]Still not clear to me after reading everything what it means that he's pressuring her to pay off his debt. If it's using her income as part of household income to pay off the debt, then it seems like no big deal in a normal marriage -- money is fungible, so even if its just "his" money paying the debt, that's less money he gives to the household/retirement/whatever. That said, unless the interest rate is high, I wouldn't necessarily rush to use joint money to pay it off early. If he is asking her to use her separate property -- e.g., premarital assets or an inheritance -- to pay it off, I personally would hesitate. A PP explained how they did something similar and it has worked our for them and their relationship, and that's great. Obviously that's the idea and what everyone wants. But it is the kind of thing that could go sideways.[/quote]
