Motronic posted:Let me explain this to you since you must not know anyone like this. It's basically failure to launch. Some people never leave a school mentality. It's all they want to do, it's the only thing they are comfortable with. Many of these people end up in academia in some capacity or another. This particular case it worse, as he ends up as "an educator" but not the kind that scratches his itch or provides for free educational opportunities so he keeps piling on debt to go to his comfortable place. I feel personally attacked.

I knew a guy, while I was in college, who was in his... 9th? year of school. He was working on a 2nd master's degree I think? His actual plan was, "if I just stay in academia for the rest of my life, I'll never have to pay off the loans"

Could he bounce between degrees and research assistant positions until Social Security eligibility time, staying on income based repayment until death? He would never make much, but might not be outright destitute if there are no children involved.

If his highest years of pay were as an assistant researcher he's basically getting no SS.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Doesn't every Instagram model have a PayPal donation link and/or patreon? Why would you need to go through this much effort to donate? And if you wanted to donate for attention, then why do it anonymously? If you used the normal way, then you wouldn't be special. Alternatively, she could be a normal person who doesn't bilk internet people for money, and he's just fixated on some girl he used to go to high school with or something. The anonymity is for plausible deniability. I'm guessing dude wants to "prove himself" / creep her out by showing he has access to her bank account info or some other personal information, but knows that's technically unwanted contact (and perhaps has been told not to contact her before...)

My husband lost $100k+ of our money (self.relationship_advice)quote:He panicked at the COVID crash and sold everything at rock bottom. I tried to explain why it was a bad financial decision, but he yelled that he should have a say and just went and did it. Unbeknownst to me, he dumped everything including the kids’ college funds. Now the market has somewhat recovered, but everything we have is sitting in cash (over $100k less than what it would be if we stayed) with no plan of what to do next except for wait for another crash. I know we are lucky to have even saved enough to lose that much. I grew up extremely poor and money means security to me. I just can’t get over what he did and I can’t stop stressing over it. He gets annoyed every time I bring it up and tells me what’s done is done and I just need to get over it. How do I move forward?

Cyrano4747 posted:The past where husband says “I need a day too” and then unilaterally makes a loving HUGE decision without consulting her is the real red flag. It's more R/relationships post, but I guess the BWM side is she's looking at it like a problem gambler saying they "lost" $100k+ because they value went back up after he sold off when there was no way either of them could have known that 100%. If they were doing well enough that the value of those holdings went up $100k in the last 6 months, then I'll bet they still came out reporting capital gains and not losses.
