[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does everyone on here who plans to generously support their adult children have their spouse's complete agreement on this point? I see this is becoming a point of contention in our marriage, and it may even be something worth divorcing over. If one spouse wants to give away a lot of money while the other wants to hold on to enough assets to ensure a comfortable, secure retirement, then the spouse who doesn't want to give away money yet has to file for a divorce and protect their half, right? In our case, there are also elderly family members taking money, and the total spending rate, once you add on pricey adult-kid stuff like a home down payment or an expensive wedding, would definitely be negative, and I see it coming like a train wreck. [/quote] Yes, spouses need to be on the same page financially or a marriage will rarely succeed. Neither of us would spend on "family" if we are not well set ourselves [/quote]
