And so, Sadie, this would be one of them.

For me, if I were you, and you would have to tell him, again, it's not in secret, but I'm opening up a separate checking account in my name because I don't feel safe financially with you.

It feels irresponsible.

And if we don't fix this, this is, I mean, these are things that end marriages, Sadie, and I don't want that for you, but it's a reflection of who he is.

And that makes me nervous.
