[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 353030, member: 3444"] I have NO problem playing the bad guy :) In our state, you cannot change beneficiaries without spousal consent, however, I don't think you need consent for investment decisions like this. Still, he has to go through me to figure out how to process the request because he is pretty much clueless. And I don't think that's something I'll be cooperative about, unless he miraculously convinces me otherwise. husband was wound up about this this morning and started getting defensive because I was questioning the soundness of the whole idea. That's another red flag in my opinion. I know he's aware of his sister's gambling issues -- he's the one that came home and told me she drives down to the indian casino about an hour south on weekday MORNINGS after she drops her daughter off at school! Her husband isn't too happy with her about it, but she says she wins sometimes, and the other times she's trying to win back what she's lost (red flag, anyone?) And she's ALWAYS been a compulsive shopper, although it's better now that she's on Wellbutrin and Prozac, but she's not completely "cured" of it. Sigh. I'll know more when he gets back from golf later today. [/QUOTE]
