Wife wants to buy a new house. We sold our old house recently and have been living in a temporary rental while looking for another one. Well, she found one. It costs about 800 k, which doesn't sound so bad except that we would pay cash and our liquid assets are about 1.5 million right now. It's also a 50 minute drive from my office. I'm also not exactly sold on the neighborhood, although I could be.

At the same time, one of my key salespeople is on her way out the door. I'm looking for a replacement and interviewed some people, but getting someone up to speed will take time.

Also got some big debts coming due on the business side. Ordinarily they wouldn't be a big deal, but combine it with these other issues and I'm feeling squeezed.

Wife is enraged that I won't just stroke a check for this house. She found it 3 days ago and already just has to have it. Said about two sentences to me last night after dinner because she's so mad.

Oh, wife is also late 30s and has given me one amazing child but hasn't given birth to any more. We have upcoming fertility clinic appointments and potential IVF expenses inbound, just to have a freaking second child.

Quite a time to be alive bros!

he's a risk adverse fag terrified to put 1/2 his NW into a house (far from financially irresponsible esp since he could access that money at very low interest if necessary) and instead of either standing his ground on the right house or acceptint (what is far more likely) that he's being a noncommittal birdbrain and that his wife is right to be annoyed at renting in perpetuity while they have the money to buy so he's coming to xo to "wahhh wahh wahhh my wife is so mean marriage sux" as his tiny pink anonymous rebellion to a decision he's about to nebbishly sign off on anyway.

My credit is horrifically bad because I put my money into building my business rather than paying student loans on any kind of responsible schedule.

Ive still been able to build up a big real estate portfolio by using seller financing and buying properties for cash. All this has led me to focus on nothing but the absolute best of the best deals, which has been beneficial.

I did IVF. Cost about 25k all in all (In Australia, so probably at least twice that in the US). The nature of it means you get rid of any chromosomal abnormalities so the chance of autism or other issues with advancing maternal age are removed.

you only get rid of abnormalities with (((PGT testing))) which is an optional $$$ addon that often rejects good embryos (and it does NOT eliminate autism risk, you were lied to).

I got IVF for a little under $10k in the US. Some people pay a lot more than that.

If it’s a 50 minute commute in stressful driving or tgat could lengthen with major traffic, then that’s kill-self territory.

50 minutes of gentle driving with podcasts will get old as fuck, but might not break you

Bottom line is that a house is a major purchase you both must be aligned. Do a joint therapy session with her or something on this topic. Way cheaper than getting in over your head. Just tell the therapist why you don’t want to buy a house right now. Don’t let them convince you or force you into something you feel strongly about as that is how you develop marriage-ending resentment.

What does wifey do for work besides spend your money and look at houses in other towns?

Wifey is a SAHM. She frequently asserts that it's a job, and a far harder one than mine. She's really pissed that I don't do 50%+ of the chores and childrearing.

I woke up vomiting in the middle of the night last night because I was so stressed about this. She told the realtor that we weren't interested.

I will have $1.1 million if I sell the Brooklyn house but she is looking at $2 million properties with $30k property tax bills on top. I will end up bending the knee on this.
