Hi,
I was wondering if other couples are like my husband and I. I have always been pretty ambitious (when it comes to making money), and have always been the one who scans the papers and internet, drives around to open houses on the weekend, sorts out the finance etc etc, where my husband is almost totally dis-interested. We have a couple of units which were bought in his name only, and he has never even seen them. I signed a contract on a house last weekend, which I actually convinced him to drive past (under duress) just to try and spark a bit of interest. He says he trusts my judgement, and tells me to go for it if I find something I think is a good deal. In one way I like having the authority to be able to do this on my own, but on the other hand, it would be nice to be able to bounce stuff off him with him being able to understand what I'm talking about, lol. I could never imagine allowing ANYONE having such control over my future and finances, without being a part of the decision making process, so I'm wondering if there are other couples who are so unbalanced, or are we just weird?
