All right. What's up, Emily? How can we help?

Well, my husband and I got married about a year ago. I'd been single for 23 years.

My goals were to have my house paid off debt-free. I achieved that goal. Had money in the bank.

I discussed before we got

married, his financial, um, situations. Um, everything was brought out. He, um, basically had a house.

Uh, he, he didn't have a house at that point, but, um, he had a car payment and he paid that, and so that was about $700.

And then he said he was helping his daughter with her student loans.

She's 36.

His son is 33.

After we were married, I found out a few months later that he was in debt to his two adult children,

$86,000.

Oh, gosh.

And then after the marriage, we got taught, so that didn't go very well with me.

And then I found out that he had racked up about $40,000 in credit card bills

because part of the wedding we just bought a new home he's he makes very good money

and then when I heard about the $40,000 that just blew me away he didn't tell you about that when you all were going through the 86,000?

No.

What a coward.

And he didn't tell me that he, you know, who was racking up these credit cards.

We went on the honeymoon.

He lost his job two weeks before our wedding.
