[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is my DH risk adverse? I guess it's because it's all he knows. We have investments, we have cash. But he is always worried about what could happen if he loses his job, if the dollar crashes, etc. I agree that I need a better idea of our finances. I bet with a clearer picture I could show him how our renos can be done without too much stress. [/quote] Pardon me, but your last two sentences are a study in cognitive dissonance and putting the cart before the horse. You don't have much of a clue what your finances are. Therefore, you cannot possibly even begin to guess or know whether and how with a clearer picture, you could show him the renos can be done without too much stress. You're putting your projections and desires way ahead of the facts. Get the facts first. Look at them with a skeptical, analytical and open mind. Then see what the picture looks like. :idea: [/quote]
