When you're married, you have to be on the same page about so many things. Before you even go down to the courthouse and get it all in writing, you need to figure out if you're going to have kids, who's going to bring home the bacon, and where you want to live long-term. Once you've sealed the deal, you have to actually follow through on those plans and do everything in each other's best interest. Unfortunately, not all spouses are equally responsible, and some care more about other members of their family than their life partners. That is the case for this husband and wife duo that has gone viral on Reddit. The husband got into an accident four years ago and no longer works, leaving his wife to provide for him and their 8-year-old daughter. The accident hasn't stopped him from spending nearly all of their money, including a $10K loan to his parents that will probably never get paid back. The wife decided to take matters into her own hands and separate their finances, but not without pushback.
