Tough Talk,
My daughter has two young daughters. She and her husband have both really worked hard to become successful. However, her husband is no longer friendly and outgoing and has become a different person, being cold and distant with my daughter and grandkids. He recently bought a boat for almost $100K and acted like it was no big deal and never told anyone. It’s now in the driveway taking up space. My daughter and I think it’s a selfish action, but aren’t sure what to do. What do you think TT? (Dale, Nevada)
Dale,
I would immediately confront the husband for making such a ridiculous purchase without your daughter’s approval. Who does he think he is? If he does not return the boat for a complete refund, get a couple cans of spray paint and put some really cool racing stripes on his toy. He sounds like a spoiled brat and you need to take the bull by the horns on this one. Don’t be a gutless toad and cop out.
