      What’s the big deal? Ramsey didn’t even ask what interest rate they have on their house. The husband is the only smart one and he’s not even on that call. They probably have a 2.5% interest rate below inflation rate so he’s smart not to dump that into a mortgage payoff. He plays golf and works leave the man alone. Probably helps a lot around the house and this wife needs to either let husband plan investments or be glad he lets her buy the risky rentals. The govt didn’t even let you evict renters while they didn’t pay rent. Huge risk to owning rentals. Husband is smart he better off without this dumb broad and her friends on Ramsey show.

He got insanity and cheated . She called him out and he lost his mind and said he did not feel like being married. So she divorced him. She kept her 401K. She kept her savings, she got the house.

It’s sad. The children are the buffers and that’s so sad for the kids. His 16 yr old daughter asked him if she could see a counselor to talk about how she’s sad that she can’t help enough people. Her mother and father both use her as an emotional crutch. The son is older and he doesnt have that same compassionate disposition, so the daughter absorbs it all. She doesn’t cook, shop for groceries, take care of the kids, not the contact for the children’s schools, etc. he said once that he can’t trust her to make any decisions either, not even about discipline, or money. He said she feels like another child to him. His youngest is 17…. We shall see if he really leaves or he just stays because it’s easier than losing half his stuff.

      My wife is Chinese, born in Malaysia. We are now both retired, in our early 70's, and have been married for 42 years.
      She is an ex ITU sister. I first met her in my mid 20's when I was a patient where she worked. I had an amputation of my right leg following an injury in the military. We dated on and off for 6 years (thanks to my PTSD) but eventually married when she became pregnant with our only son.
      She is Buddhist and I am Christian. She is money orientated and I am not. We have zero debts as we have paid off our mortgage and never use credit cards or other personal loans. We rarely eat out and once every 3 years we visit family in Malaysia.
      We argue over most things especially due to her forays in the stock market. 15 years ago she lost £50,000 in the financial markets and now retired she is again "playing the game" racking up losses.
      Our sex life dwindled out 20 plus years ago. She always demonises me saying I'm stupid, my pension is peanuts, and so on.
      I feel I owe her because she was there for me following the amputation. If I left her now she is elderly, I would be riddled with guilt. I feel trapped in a relationship I hate. I have even contemplated suicide but our son and our two grandsons give me the reason to carry on. I am so unhappy. If we ever did divorce, I would be be willing to give her everything just to set myself free BUT the feeling of guilt prevents me from taking that step.

I didn't allow myself to fall in love until I felt comfortable being with this man in all those areas. We've been married 8yr now, blessed with 4 kids and debt free except our house and life is hard but we're doing it TOGETHER and we dream TOGETHER ❤

    In a divorce, he would get half the value of the house, the rental properties, and half her 401k. Then she would pay him palimony monthly. Divorce is not an option unless she wants to lose half of what she's worked for and give up 30-45% of her salary. I know men who have gone through this.

      It's because we rescue people. We save them, come hell or high water. We can't help ourselves until we become conscious of how we enable crazy and support it. Lots of people besides us nurses do this. Many men do this and then end up supporting crazy wives for many years.
      This woman has to decide if she is okay with her husband as he is. He is not going to change and that is fine. She can divorce him, but then what? If she was not getting something out of this, she would not have stayed for 29 years. So find his value and love it. Because he has value. Now she suddenly realizes she is at retirement age and she has been so busy and unaware that she panics. So it is easy to blame him. But it takes two to tango, and he has been dancing too, just not doing the steps she suddenly demands.

It only took me 10 years to get to the ruckus point. 🤦🏻‍♀️ (Please read that last sentence with the sarcasm it is spoken with.) The catalyst to make a ruckus was a conversation with my financial advisor about what I thought was a business issue… thankfully, he also opened my eyes by telling me it was a marriage issue, not a business or money issue.

One wants to retire and the other one is full of energy, so they end up growing apart. It would be easier if she said she had one million dollars in debt because she could make a plan and pay it off. But, changing someone's mindset it’s very hard. So, either she walks away and gives him half of what she has or gets stuck with him forever.

      For the sake of your children, it seems best to end the marriage. A deep conversation with your husband, letting him know how you feel. Keep it civil without judgement or anger. If you are able to, speak with a lawyer. I know they’re costly but you’ll know what options you have. Ask family members for financial help, if you’re able. Scout available jobs as you’re going to need one. You won’t believe how big the World is once you go it on your own. It won’t be easy, however, in the end you’ll have a beautiful new, exciting future. When you realize how much time you wasted, you’ll be even more dedicated to finding your interests. It will all work out. Change is rough. If you approach change knowing the best is yet to come, you’ll be able to embrace it as something that had to happen in order to have your new life. You have lovely children and a life experience from your married life. Much more is coming when you’re able to think clearly. After every disaster, there’s triumph. I have a feeling you’ll be that rising Phoenix. You and your children are going to make it. 🙏🪷❤️

If you get money for household and groceries and such pull out some money to be able to leave. If he needs a receipt to compare what you spent just work on lying and say any money you set aside is for gifts for family or the children.
      If you have relatives you can TRULY trust ask for their help.

Maybe there's a good reason why he doesn't want to do what she wants. Maybe he's just a dead beat. The point is we don't know. Regardless, the 2 of them need to have a deep conversation and some counseling if they want to get ahead.

Meaning she wanted to be in charge and her husband let her take control of the relationship. However here is where the unaccountable part comes in unlike a man she wanted to be a boss without paying the bills. Men understand in relationships they have to pay the bills so naturally they take charge. If a woman wants to take charge pay the bills and keep it moving.

She was down for it. 3 years of planning, her family was from a Muslim background, but she started to see herself as Christian, as myself, how true that was I have no clue. Needless to say parents didn’t agree with it. But, she wanted it. She clearly didn’t want it enough, she then threw the whole relationship away, despite being ready to move in with me.

If this lady has been making all the decisions, then I totally understand why he sits back and does nothing. I hope that he agrees to counselling.

    After following this show for about 4 years, most of these problems arise from the fact that couples dont do proper maintenance on their relationship and just go to the damn counselor from early on. Why do you need a talk show to help you realize that you need counseling???

      Some, if not most people, need confirmation from a third party before they make certain life changes because others around them, even that voice in their head, is telling them they may be wrong.

    I had a marriage like that. I went to a counselor. She asked why I was still with him.
    I said that I believed that marriage is sacred.
    She said she agreed, but that what I was describing is NOT a marriage! She was so right.

    She wants her husband to be something he's not. She's extremely ambitious and he just wants a simple life. He's probably always been that way and has given up since she is pretty much taking over. My brother married a nurse who was quite driven and he said she was always at him.

      Wanting a simple life is fine, but the man hasn’t saved a single penny in 30 years! Even most simple folk with meager earnings know the value of saving at least something for the future and paying off their home. And a team has to be in agreement for each person’s role and lifestyle and it sounds like these people are definitely not.
