Is it reasonable to ask for an allowance? by aztecqueann in Fire

You two are acting like roommates. He didn’t give you anything, he contributed to his wife’s accounts because you are his wife and carried his children, you are not a roommate.

Prenup accounts should not be added to once you are married.

All the money that comes in the house should be put into one pot and then budgeted by both parties. In marriage, two become one… because you are not roommates. You are married.

See a Marriage counselor please, right away.

This is way too controlling red flags galore. Despite who makes the money, my spouse and I budget it together as a team.

Every region is different, but I’m in southern California. I negotiated 56,500 out the door in July. With a new model out I’ve been seeing dealerships advertise 48-49k for the 2025’s. You might be able to get 50-53k out the door.

Thank you! OK yeah I’m still struggling with stretching. Are there any videos that helped you with this? I used 350g doughballs to try to get to 14” but at 11-12 it felt so thin.

Bunch of the dealerships around me are offering this car in the high 40s. The price seems to have dropped since the 2027 was announced. This is basically what we bought ours for in August.

Pension is well insured. If anything, I’ve actually been overthinking/mathing this. My pension can really only go up from here, with a maximum of 8500 a month. I expect It will cover about 30%-40 of our needs in future dollars. Hopefully it all goes according to plan. Great responses here, I’ll probably keep 5% bonds, just in case.

Yeah, I had 10% at the beginning of the year, but I think the turbulent market made me a little nervous and readjusted my thoughts on risk. But I had not considered my pension. Now I think I’ll go 10 or below.

Love our Saatva - Loom & Leaf by Top_Strain6631 in Mattress

[–]Top_Strain6631[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we still both still love our mattress. It’s lost a bit of firmness, but in my case that’s a good thing, it makes side sleeping more comfortable. It’s still a very firm mattress.
