Dear Eric: I have a group of three girlfriends from middle school/high school. We stayed close during college and were in each other’s weddings, etc. I have known these women for more than 50 years.
Dear Eric: I’m a 62-year-old female and have been married to my second husband (a 65-year-old male) for 30 years. Empty nesters. Never once has my husband divulged to me what his financial situation is. Now that I am disabled and don’t work anymore, I depend on him financially. He just tells me to not spend so much. I don’t by any means. I have no idea where we stand. I’ve asked him many times to sit down with me and plan a budget. I am on a fixed income, he still works. I feel like I’m going through life fiscally blind. What can I say to convince him to give me that information? What would happen if he went before me?
