[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always love how women feel their money is their money and men are supposed to provide.

If you reversed the genders here, op would be savaged!!![/quote]

That’s in a situation where the wife gave birth to his kids and sacrificed her career by either mommy tracking or staying home. Not a later in life marriage where the mother of his children is neither caring for not financially providing for their children and as a result he is not saving enough for retirement.

Well presumably OP knew about the situation with the ex and that there was no child support coming.  Nothing in her posts indicate that she was duped.  Sounds like now that the initial euphoria has died down she has buyer’s remorse.  My BIL came from a home like this.  He and his sister ended up with a lot of student loans while his half and step-siblings has college paid for.  Thankfully he’s a pretty easygoing guy and doesn’t seem to harbor resentment toward his siblings but couldn’t have been easy.[/quote]
