I handled all the finances for 28 years but he spent money faster than I could juggle it so it was stressful. Today I paid 6 months in advance with CASH and I'm poor. lol
My ex didn't spend faster than I could juggle it, but he did spend somewhat impulsively and I did have to juggle and budget to make it all work. A few years after the divorce, one of my sons figured out what I make and what H makes ( he makes twice as much) and was perplexed as to how I could help them all out when things got tight but my ex cried poor. I'm doing just fine. And so are you, it sounds like.
