Actually SJW, have realised that what he's mirroring is his own father's financial idiocy...his father almost went bankrupt when H was a teenager. They survived in retirement because his father had a very good French state industry pension. In fact when we got together, H was credit blacklisted and had to do a legal disassociation from his father to eventually co-own our first house.
Ironically, having been very distant from alcoholic father and bi-polar mother, he's been borrowing money from his father.Odd.
