She’ll remember this when she gets their inheritance. You won’t get a penny. Seems not worth the battle. You don’t have to stay at their house the whole time. You can go to movie by yourself, play golf, whatever your hobby is. On the other hand it is a little weird that you say y’all drive ...

Just saying 700-800k to million plus homes you were talking about doesn’t matter. You never paid that, so your parents never did either…big deal. But 300-500k is not beer money for you if y’all only make 160k...

OP, there are no laws that say get married, buy an expensive house, have kids, and join the rat race as soon as possible. Not to mention all the crap your wife will want to buy to fill the house that will be thousands of dollars. New furniture, lawn equipment, appliances. Closing costs. Home ...

Sounds like you should move, keep renting or get cheaper house. Daycare in northern Virginia is going to cost you over 1000$ a month, they wanted 1500$ for us in Arlington 10 years ago…. So we moved to Williamsburg. Insurance/taxes only get higher, your house payment will only go up every year. ...
