    I'll be fair to the father-in-law, if he's only paying $250 a month rent, why would he buy a house? Yes a house helps you build wealth, however, you're not going to buy a house for $250 a month

      @@Juhiss93 it doesn't matter if it is fancy or not. Apparently is fancy enough for the father-in-law enough so that he will actually live there. At the end of the day, for cheap enough rent I would stay at a less than ideal place instead of buying. It is a financial calculation after all

      @@catrinlewis939 that might be so, but she was critical of him for having lived somewhere for $250 a month for two or three decades instead of buying a house. I am going to humbly suggest that if you are able to lose somewhere for multiple decades for $250 that you should live there instead of buying. You should have plenty of money to save at that point. I don't know how much she made, I don't know how much he frittered away. All I can guarantee is there's no way he could have purchased a house for $250 a month. And there's no guarantee that he would have kept up with say a $800 a month mortgage. I do know that he had $550 a month savings that he should have been able to salt away.
      My whole point is I think she is being critical of the wrong thing. I don't blame the father-in-law for renting for $250 a month. He found a great deal, apparently he was comfortable living there. That being said, he should have been able to easily save hundreds of dollars a month. That is what I would criticize him for not that he rented for 20 or 30 years. He would have been an idiot not to rent.

    I don't think this lady is being selfish, I think she has some real worry. I would be worried too if I was working FOUR JOBS to pay for myself to live, and on top of it had to worry about now having to support my husband's father. That being said, just have a straight conversation with him and let him know you cannot afford to support him. My mom sold her house about ten years ago because she couldn't afford to keep it up once my step father died, and she didn't want to do all the work involved. A year ago she talked to me stating she was thinking about selling her almost paid off condo to buy a house with her companion, who is older than her, but he is in good health supposedly. I sat her down and said, you can buy a house if you want with this man, you are a grownup after all, , as long as you understand that if something happens or you or his health goes downhill I will not I CANNOT take care of two houses, so you will be on your own to keep it up, including the snow blowing and yard work. I haven't heard a word about it since and she is still living happily in her easy to maintain condo. I think the best approach is to not be bossy, or tell them what to do, but to make it clear what you will not do.

    This reminds me of when we rewrote our wills. We asked our adult children, "What do you think of this idea?" They all gave the same answer, "It's your money. Do whatever you want." Well, we kept the real and personal property and about a million-and-a-half in cash and marketable securities in case we later need long-term care but after that did what we thought best.
    Also, Dave mentioned about when people we care about are stupid. Who hasn't been stupid? Finally, they're talking like this old guy is being stupid. Maybe has lots of resources and income; they don't seem to know.

If they are doing so well --they should help him since they have a good relationship. He is still relatively young and it may be 20 years before he would need anything and he is not asking them for help now anyway. Until he does....she should MYOB.

Her father-in-law is in a better position than my in-laws. My in-laws have mortgage payments, car payments and no savings. If/when our parents health fails they can move in with us and after that the nursing home will take their social security. I'm just trying to contribute to my retirement fund so I don't wind up in the same situation as them. My in-laws are of a generation where they don't ask for help. We will, of course help if needed but for now they are fine.
