Hi,
My husband has a dream to start a buisness,actually it is more of a reality at this point.I think his idea is great and he has all the buisness planning down and has done all his homework. He has the copyright to the name and has been to numerous financial planners and bankers.
My problem is how do I support this? I am beyond scared what this could do to us financially and to our marriage. He is aware of my concerns and continues to go forward with it. He is planning on quitting his job and taking the retirement money and using some of it as a down payment for the loan. He will lose his health insurance (he is diabetic) and have to pay a much higher rate for insurance.
We have been going to marriage counseling for about a month now for communication issues and I feel that it has helped but now in our sessions it has come to this buisness and things arent good. He wants me to be a part of the business and I dont want to. I feel that he should work on us before he ventures into something as big as this.
I refuse to sign the loan papers for one because if things are bad between us I am not taking that risk of being stuck with it if something happens with us. He doesnt need me for the loan but needs our income together.
I just dont know what else to do,its breaking us apart because I cant support this big decision, and he wont fix us first.
Any advice would be great
