[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can jeopardize your brothers benefits giving him income. [/quote]

This. Your brother may see his benefits decrease or lose them altogether, which is more expense for you. [/quote]

In regards to my brother, I want to get him a new car. I don't need to necessarily give him more per month. I also have 2 elderly retired parents. They live a very modest life with no luxuries. This has more to do with my parents than my brother.

This thread has made it pretty clear. I will go back to work.

When I was working, I was very resentful that I took the hit for every snow and sick day. DH earned about 3x what I did so of course it made sense that I was the default parent.

Having a successful husband has a lot of negatives.[/quote]

With your joint incomes you could easily afford a nanny (or au pair) and not have to worry about taking off sick or snow days.

Does your brother have a car? Maybe you can compromise with your DH and get a used one. Honestly though it just sounds like the two of you resent each other. [/quote]
