My husband is horrible with money.
We have two little children and I am always worried. He has a warrant out for his arrest for not paying for a car years ago when he lived in another state! He gets served papers from people who are suing him for not paying his bill. His business is working with concrete and he writes bad checks to his vendors all the time hoping he’ll get some money in the bank by the time the check clears. We are so far in credit card debt because there is never any money in the bank. When we get some money, the first think he wants to do is buy something big and frivolous like a 50 inch TV or celebrate with an expensive dinner. He has no money to fix his old van or buy a car so he throws our money away renting for months and months now. I always pay everything on time and want nothing more than to be on track and able to save money for our future and our kids’ future, but it seems so overwhelming and impossible. What is wrong with him? How can he understand how he goes about things is dead wrong? He makes excuses after excuses and blames it on everyone else (”that bank sucks, they’re robbing us with fees!” or “this customer sucks, he refuses to pay me!”) He has such bad luck with money that I think it has something to do with his energy. Help me. I think I have taken as much as I can. I want to take the kids, leave him, and move in with my mother. He always makes ME open credit cards and bank accounts in my name. He always has a lame reason for not being able to do this or that. He always loses his cards and needs to borrow mine. He rips checks out of the checkbook and leaves no record for them. I don’t ever have to share his money woes again.
