Financial irresponsibility

My parents paid for well over half of the price of our home so that the idiot husband only has to make monthly payments.  They also give me (us) a monthly allowance so that I can pay for the utilities, groceries, clothing for the boys, etc.  The idiot husband does not contribute a single penny to the family other than paying down the nominal mortgage and our health insurance premium through his job–and it definitely stops there.  He doesn’t even shell out a single for the office co-pays.

And now, he’s fucking buying himself a goddamn $10,000 motorcycle.  “For fun,” he says.  Fucking $10,000 just for kicks, in this economy–this officially named recession.  I scrimp and save and agonize over spending the tiniest amounts and he has the audacity to burn $10,000 on some ridiculous toy for himself.  Is this why my parents still support us?  So he can take our disposable income to make a mid-midlife crisis purchase?

It’s not like I have any recourse.  He’s going to do this regardless of how I feel.  It’s not as if he asked me.  He TOLD me that he’d made the decision.  Okay, I’m even angrier now than when before I started this post.  The only way for this to be fair is for him to crash and burn with his new $10,000 toy.  Good fucking riddance!
