brought to you by the every dollar app
start budgeting for free today today's
question comes from Veronica in Texas my
husband and I were married a few months
ago before the wedding he told me he was
a successful businessman and had a net
worth of just under a million he had
stories about properties he owned Farm
leases and businesses he has invested in
we lived together before marriage and he
rarely help with household bills using
the excuse that my income can handle the
regular expenses and he would cover the
stuff when it came up naturally uhoh now
that we're legally married he admitted
his stories were lies he doesn't have
any assets and has over
$150,000 in debt that he is behind on I
am freaking out I made plans for my
business based on his promises to
contribute more into our shared expenses
I have some debt from our wedding and
the slow months in my business I'm not
sure how I can keep supporting the whole
household why while he pays his debt off
where do I go from here I would go
straight to counseling
I don't know anywhere else to go when
the your relationship was built on a
throne of Lies I would go straight to
the judge and I would get the marriage
and olded I think this is It's a farce
this is a fraud she has been defrauded
this is not a marriage problem where we
want to work out some differences this
is straight up fraud I hope you know I
really don't care what the audience
thinks if they think I'm wrong there I
really don't as I think this is such a
fraudulent deal this is she's been
completely duped to the point
him conning her yes it sounds like
that's Bas on what I'm reading the
thread and pattern of lies I'm going the
nuclear option the uh studio audience
seems to be half with me on this one I I
think I think this is not a counseling
thing this is a
fraud and uh this is nope we're done and
I go to the judge and I tell the judge
and and we get this thing annulled and
then she moves on with her life now give
him the chance to get remarried if he
fixes his life but this is this was
entered into un such de ception I just
don't know how you go well we should go
see a therapist I'm not knocking your
answer no I I think that was me being
kind here to say do you think I'm being
outrageous I I don't know that there's
hope for this marriage I'll say that I
don't think it's a marriage I don't
think you can rebuild from that level of
yeah you know dishonesty and false
pretenses so Veronica if I mean James
doesn't make these up these are real
emails that we get people thinking that
we make these up for great content this
is just the state of America America
guys I don't know what to tell you dark
stuff yeah I I wouldn't yeah this is
done done immediately and the fact that
she had no idea is also worrisome there
was no signs that this guy was like what
is he doing all day well I you know what
I don't want to pile on she's been lied
to but I think there were some
signs I I knew where this was going I
didn't know where the email was going
but as soon as the old uh he said he was
worth this but he didn't help out when
we were living together cuz he was like
well it's enough to live off yours I'll
handle the big stuff I mean the the the
detector was gone the farm leasing is a
very specific lie I don't know that I
could even that was not on my bingo card
right that he had a farm lease this is a
fraud this is a complete charl this guy
might need to go to jail maybe but he's
definitely going to uh the courthouse
