Wife won't "allow" her ATM to retire even though he can

Well he is a slave in a marriage and slaves are not allowed to retire.

Either he divorces and still has to work a bit more to make back the half she took or stay married and never retire and get divorced later and retire even later.

It all depends on when to go his own way and be happier earlier.

He's just realised who he married lol.

The dudes 32 and can "retire" with his investments and side jobs, still earning more than the wife. The wife that's 10 days into her job after College. If theyr similar age, she's approx 30+ and just now got a job.

He's set up to bankroll her materialistic life. Her parents are still working in their 60's and very wealthy, though awful with money/investing.

He needs to start stashing his cash, "lose" a lot of his investments, and get outta dodge.

What a fucking spineless shit. Wife won't "let me" retire. Man just kill yourself if your wife gets a say in when you retire.

More like she doesn't want to know what she really gets up to during the day.

It's never enough

Lol! He's screwed either way. Definitely listen to the op and GYOW as a man.

Sure would be a shame if this guy learned that some countries don't extradite to the US.

Sure would be a shame if he just....vanished.

She literally doesn’t care about him one iota. She only cares what others think about their image. She’s typically ungrateful and feels a natural entitlement to his shit. Unfortunately he’s so invested in their relationship and blue pilled to realise he even has a say in the matter. She’s the default boss at home even though he’s the one who brings in all the money.

He just needs to put her in her place. She'll fall in line.

To be fair, I know of several couples where the wife is looking forward to having her husband retire so she can spend more time with him. Sometimes the husband is in no hurry because he's having a grand time moseying around teaching the young ones how to do the craft. And the company really wants him to stay so he can teach the young ones how to do the craft.

Some crafts are as much art as they are science, and the good companies know this. They also know that they can hire as many young ones as they want but it can't replace the knowledge and experience sitting in the skull of some of those grey haired men. So they want them to stay.

My dad was like that. They basically told him to work in the tempo he likes. But please just teach stuff to the young knuckleheads. Both the ones on the floor and those behind the desks.

It was a tough choice. Spend most of the day shooting the shit with the other guys, eat cake and food prepared by a chef in the cantina, or go home and sit talking to my mum all day, every day. 😁

He stayed a couple of years more than he had to.

I've seen the retirement/divorce scenario play out so many times. Man retires, is home too much for the wife, and she files for divorce. A "smarter" woman files for divorce prior to retirement to force the wage slave ATM (i.e. husband) to be forced to work to pay alimony/and or child support.

when the plow horse strikes back.

Pre-nup, Gents. Prenuptial agreement. She won't like it but you will.

RottingVillain666 · 2021-07-10T05:46:23+00:00

I told him strsight up what he got into. I sure am sadic

MOLONGU · 2021-07-10T09:07:06+00:00

I don't feel sorry for these guys they knew better but these guys think they are the exception to the rule and found a unicorn....

jbjbjb10021 · 2021-07-10T17:47:01+00:00

This guy needs to GTFO of Dodge before it is too late. It sounds like the lady is a pig and he can easily get her to lose interest and move out.

Me personally I would tell her to fuq off.

This guy should start sleeping until noon and leaving pizza boxes around the house.

jbjbjb10021 · 2021-07-10T17:45:03+00:00

He should slap her in the face and tell her to go fuck herself and start drinking all day.

I had an ex who got so mad because my job has me working only a couple of days a week and that makes me lazy. Maybe I dunno.

What I do know is I made 2X what she made and paid all the bills but since I didnt work the same hours as her she was mad...while mostly freeloading off me.

Gofishingrn · 2021-07-10T18:44:16+00:00

IMO This Dude needs to grow a pair. Seems like SO is only interested in his cash and ‘status’ as it relates to her and others. Shallow. But he went ahead and wifed her up and apparently has kid(s) so if he’s going to leave it won’t be cheaply. If he’s in the US he’s looking at potentially losing half (minimum) of his crap, plus child support and/or alimony payments for awhile. Stand up to her or exit. Pick your poison.
