[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your DH makes $650,000 let him spend what he wants or he will find someone who will. You are obnoxious.[/quote] NP: You are obnoxious. It doesn't matter how much you earn: if you overspend, you will face a financial crisis. What if he was gambling or buying a garage full of fancy cars they don't drive while not investing in retirement? What if his spending involves running up credit card debt that exceeds his high income? "Let him spend what he wants" is only a good plan if he is financially savvy and wants to stick to the budget with his spending. How about a couple works together to develop the family savings goal and both stick to the plan? It sounds like OP has a financial goal her husband hasn't agreed to; and it sounds like he is spending in a manner that OP sees as jeopardizing the family's future finances and their retirement plan. They need to get on the same page.[/quote]
