Topic: Secret Bank Accounts ! | |
---|---|
My friend at work has a Bank Account that he's been hiding from his wife for over 10 years.
The account has over $50.000 in it, and he knows she will blow thru it if she knew. He made this money by doing side work as a mechanic, and gambling and has saved it for years. Does he have a right to have something for himself ? |

Well he was doing just fine until you posted it on the world wide web
depends on which state he lives in - in some 1/2 is hers and in others all is hers |

Ahhh, community property law. She has a right to 50% of the money!

Hmmmmmmm my first reaction would be smart man but also.....on the other hand he isnt being completely honest with his wife.
A catch-22 |

Does she outweigh him???? Is he able to run fast at a moment's notice???

I think he's has a right to all of that money (he earned it)and I don't believe she even needs to know. She could have been doing the same thing if she wanted to.
When I was married I always had an account that no one knew about. It's just a smart thing to do, male or female. |

That's just wrong.. JMO

IMO...it is not wrong. Maybe you just aren't jaded enough yet to understand.

What makes him think she wouldn't understand if he just told her that he was going to take those earnings and put them away? Is he assuming they are going to get divorced? Why is he so untrusting of his own wife? Sounds like they have troubles to me.
If I found out my husband was stashing money, it would tell me a lot about his vision of our relationship. |
