My (35M) wife (33F) inherited a large chunk of her late father's sizable estate. What is badly named, and what is a better name for it? I don’t know what they’re for, but there’s 4 of them totaling 55k We did discuss them a year ago when I first proposed, and she told me she was debt-free. Lots of questions asking why we didn’t discuss finances before getting married. I’m gonna break the news and I’ll keep you guys posted! Thanks for the help! Thanks to everyone for giving me advise on this!Īlright, I’m not going to file with the court. Broke a lot of things on the way out, and was telling me things like she plans to sue me for wasting her time and pain and suffering □ it’s shitty, but onto the next I guess. News was broken, she left in a firestorm. Admittedly, I was incredibly pissed when she told me last night and we haven’t talked since then. How should I approach this? We’re filing with the court later today if that makes a difference.
Not gonna lie, had I known this I wouldn’t have even thought marriage to be an option. She’s pressing really hard that it’s “our” money now and she’s expecting me to withdraw everything and put it towards her debt, per Dave Ramsey who she’s been apparently following for years. I have 120k in investments and 30k in savings. I just got married yesterday, and last night my wife drops the bomb on me that she has $160k in debt between school, judgements, cars and credit cards. Throw away for hopefully obvious reasons.
