31.672 - 45.74 Rachel Cruze

And we'll be answering your questions about your life, your money, relationships, career, anything and everything. Give us a call. First in Miami, we have Sally on the line. Hi, Sally. Welcome to the show.

45.76 - 66.208 Sally

Hi, thanks so much for taking my call. I'll try to be quick with my question. My husband does well financially, but he tends to be a bit controlling with money. He's always taken the inheritance I've received each year and invested it in the stock market. Recently, I received about 50K, which will probably be the last bit of inheritance for a while.

67.086 - 83.61 Sally

Since I'm a stay-at-home mom with no allowance, I'd like to keep this money in a separate savings account in my name only. But he's adamantly against this and wants me to give him the money to invest. He said he'll give me the monthly dividends as an allowance. But I was hoping for more freedom than that.

83.91 - 84.87 Rachel Cruze

Oh, geez, Sally.

84.91 - 90.672 George Kamel

I don't like the word allowance used when it's not with your own child. Right.

90.732 - 97.12 Sally

Is this how it's been your whole marriage? Yeah. Yeah, and sometimes I get an allowance and sometimes I don't.

98.621 - 101.982 George Kamel

Based on your behavior? Did you clean up your toys? I don't understand.
