The statement I made was sort of a self criticism. I certainly put way more attention into my finances than I did my M. All along I thought I was "doing my part" by preparing us for retirement and the future. Could not have been more wrong.
It's good that you recognize that.
I was much the same. My H is much more of a laissez-faire money manager, I was always afraid we'd end up in the "poorhouse" which no longer exist. So I put a lot of pressure on us due to my fear and my attachment to money and material things. I wasn't extravagant at all but I put all that before my family.
How are you going to use your knowledge going forward?

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
