[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The irritating part here is that your ILs CAN afford vacation, but choose not to allocate their money in order to do so. It's sort of like they're saying that they value their home and lifestyle more than you (which is fine, their nuclear family comes first) and can't spend time with you unless you pick up the bill. Imagine a couple where the woman makes 60k and the man makes 40. Each individual can afford to go out to dinner, but the man is only willing to go out to dinner when the woman pays and it's a really nice place. [/quote] There are many posters on here who make what her ILs do and they say they are living paycheck to paycheck. Not everyone making 180K could afford to fly a family of five for a week long vacation. who knows what their life circumstances are. [b]And OP isn't picking up the bill - her husband is and they don't share their finances.[/b] [/quote] Wow, moocher much? What a stupid POV. Just because they chose to have separate accounts doesn't mean they don't have joint obligations and expenses. These are money that he's taking away from his household, his family, his children.[/quote]
