I feel that if I attempt to take any of the money he has from the sale of his house, that it wouldn't really be an honest thing to do as he has no retirement CD's or retirement fund. He is acombat wounded veteran and gets disability from the VA. He will get retirement from the Fed govt, but has no savings other than the money from the sale of his house.

Of course, I have no retirement fund, no VA benefits, no CD's or paysop or any retirement plan. My mother and I laughed that my retirement plan is a bicycle, blanket and can of pork n beans under the overpass....

I'm sure God will take care of me and he has given me a great imagination and ability to survive. I just can't condone my taking what isn't mine unless, as you say, I earned it. I'velost a lot this year being married to him. I gave up a great job with great benefits to marry him.
