[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he’s only making $350k, it’s highly unlikely he has enough to retire in 4 years unless he sold a company for millions or something.

I agree he does not actually sound good with money (buying expensive things people don’t want is wasteful, even if you can technically “afford” it.)

Kids are expensive, especially childcare and college educations. You two need to get on the same page and once the baby arrives he’s going to need to start caring about what you think and want more than he currently does. He sounds like a steamroller.[/quote]

He has a lot of bitcoin and investments. He’s also has a few properties as well. His dad retired at 45 as well from his investments.

I do agree that I need him to understand that spending money on frivolous things now that the baby is on the way is a no-go. I appreciate that he wants to give me “just because” gifts, so I think a conversation on spending limits needs to be had as well. [/quote]

The problem is it is HIS MONEY. He can do whatever he wants. What are your childcare plans for the baby when you return to work? We’ll wait.[/quote]

We both work from home and live close by to our families. So, they’ve agreed to watch the baby as needed. [/quote]
