[quote=Anonymous][quote][b]I feel a lot of pressure because of my potential earnings, and he often talks about how he wants to buy XYZ for his dad, sister, niece, how he needs to support this person and that person.[/b] But the way he is going, he would be lucky to make 100k from his own salary. Is it expected for me to do these things for his family? If it was simply he is doing what he loves and it's just a lower paying career, that's one thing, but it's starting to seem like he feels he has it made and does not need to make serious career moves, or plan financially.

To me it is a red flag when someone starts spending your earning on someone else. It shows a lack of respect for your work and a kind od resentment. Money can cause a lot of problems in families. You truly might want to think about protecting your assets and your marriage. You do not have it made at $750 a year -- it can ALWAYS be spent. Also you might think the family will be grateful... good chance they won't be. They will take your money and then want more, or dislike you for giving them money. Seems counter intuitive, but there it is. BTDT.[/quote]
