I'm kind of like my mind isn't like in chaos right now. I'm on the verge of wanting to

divorce my husband, basically to try to keep it short. But for the whole last year and this year,

he has been kept me in the dark in our finances.

Like I wasn't allowed to have access to his account or any of the accounts.

And he would kind of occasionally give him money weekly.

But anyways, I was like, hey, it's time to get a new house

because we have a three-year-old that needs his own bedroom.

So we pulled out money from the HELOC,

and he was, you know, very up to pulling that money out.

Why would you pull money out of a HELOC to get a new house?

Why don't you sell your house?

Well, we were going to keep this house to rent it out and charge double because the rental

market in my area is about $2,300, and a mortgage is only $1,000.

Well, that's before you took out a HELOC and before you had expenses.

But let's go ahead, okay.

Yeah, and so we were going to take the HELOC, put money down on another home, and, you know, live there.

But between December to May, I didn't know that he had actually gambled all of the He luck.

And I found out, too, that we have like $20,000 worth of credit card that were all cash advances.

So he obviously has a gambling problem.

Yes.

What kind of gambling is he doing?
