Money help: my new husband of 2years ex wife passed away 2 weeks ago and - Help.com

Save every single receipt, and get a hard copy of all the bills to show him, and then after he looks at them, pull out your paystubs, and show him, you just have to prove to him in black and white. sometimes people have to see real hard cold facts until they will beleive anything.

Your husband has an idea how expensive living is but is in the verge of denial. he knows what’s he is giving u is not enough. Most men don’t like to talk about what’s REALLY going on. Aadams made a very good suggestion as the first step –which is to hand it to him all the receipts.

Are his children working already? are u good friends with them? they can always see the household struggling so if they understand then they can offer help.

Well, you could give him all the responsibilities of the finances in the house to make him realise just how much it does cost to live then he may just ask the kids to pay a little board. maybe not the 2 younger ones, depending of course on their financial situation. Another thing is to just provide them with the basic necessities to survive, A roof over their head and food in their mouth. If they want something extra they have to buy it themselves like their personal needs, deoderant, perfumes, etc. Good Luck!!
