My question is more about how to not be a controller or an enabler and continue being an encouraging wife when I just feel really let down.

There's a lot of arguments.

Great question.

So we are in the baby steps.

We do have an emergency fund of a little over $1,000, which I'd be happy for it just to be $1,000, but I'll just say that for now.

We do have a personal loan that's just left over on a truck that we bought, and we have a mortgage since we own our house.

Okay.

The loan on the truck that we have left is just $1975.69.

Okay.

Sorry.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We actually got a loan from the bank, and then it's a long story, but that's just essentially what we have left on it.

So I make a base of $60,000 with an on-target earning of $90,000.

And my husband, he is commissioned only.

So that's part of the challenge.

And he has been commissioned only since we got married.

Okay.

He made over $150,000 our first year of marriage.

It was about $160,000 pre-tax.

And he's on track, hopefully, to at least make $150,000 at this new position he has.
