I had been saving since I was of age when I first went to mop floors at the local supermarket. I made a habit of having a stash. Over 10 years, my savings have grown a lot, and now I have practically a fortune by the standards of many people. And then disaster came from where you could not expect: my husband found out about my money, and asked to invest it in the general business.
But I do not want to! I remember how we were young, my sister and I, my own father drove us, how later there was nothing to eat, how my mother was forced to go to the cafe to wash the floors at 4 am, to feed us – I do not want that!
That’s why I’ve been saving up my whole life for a “safety cushion”. What if something happens? Today my husband loves, and tomorrow suddenly fall out of love, like our dad? And I have money. So I lived peacefully, knowing that I would never be left to die in poverty. Yes, inflation ate some of it, but still, with my money you can still buy an apartment.
It turned out that my mother had blabbed (to my boyfriend at the time, not my husband). They had a big fight once, and my mother yelled something like:
“Beggar, you’ll marry her just for her stash!”
Word for word, my husband-to-be found out about my money, but of course he didn’t tell me anything. Two years passed. Now my husband offers to invest it in his delusional idea. I’m already tired of fighting with him on the theme that it is a losing idea, but he also took offense: how so, I know about his plans, I persuade not to invest in it the general money, and I at the same time have their own. Yes, if he was given as much as I have money, there would immediately went to such a profit, that would be repaid in six months!
I categorically refused, now insulted husband prepares documents for divorce … Now I think at what point something went wrong?
