My significan others daughter does not work. Her husband is employed full time. She is always borrowing money from her dad. She runs up all kinds of debt. She shops all of the time, but has no plans on getting a job soon. Her house is filthy because she shops everyday and is never home to clean.
I watched a show today about families in huge debt, but the wife does not work. The first thing out of the financial adivsors mouth to the women who dont work was "your going to have to get a jobs
I look at these women who expect everything with no job. 2 cars, cell phones, nice clothes, shopaholics who run up increadible credit card debt. They have the courage to get on TV and complain about their debt.
My mother didnt work didnt have a car, no cell phone and was an excellent stay at home mom. She was not extravagant.
What is the deal with these women who complaint about the money, but dont work. Am I too harsh or is it ridiculous to think you can spend money and sit on your a.s

FYI: My friend who has the daughter who does not work has diabetes, heart disease, bordeline renal failure and works 6 nites a week 12 -14 hours a nite. She is a lazy slob for lack of a better word. He should be saving for his younger kids and retirement. Generalization, NO! I realize some women work. I work full time and support 2 kids as a single mother. I never depended on my dad to take care of my bills because I was lazy and had a shopping addiction. I never burdened anyone else. He makes it my business when he sleeps, eats and practically lives at my house. She is a mooch. Many other women work and are very successful.

Seems like she will continue to behave this way as long as her husband does not step in and her father continues with the loans.

well, after all that womens rights 'revolution' everything is gone downhill.

higher divorce rates, children growing up fatherless (also no visitation rights) or with step fathers who abuse them. All of this because their father slapped their mum once and she took him to court to suck money out of him, and to pay for the kids while she goes and finds a new lover to suck money from.

Some women make enough money from divorcing wealthy men that they don't have to work after the age of 35 or so.

I predict that this girl who is sucking money from her own father will end up being a complete gold digger, to be honest i don't see the difference in gold digging and robbing a bank, someone ends up hurt.

If this girl isn't charismatic or seductive enough to be a gold digger she'll end up as a stripper or prostitute when her father is broke.

I'm not a father or anything just a young male observing a twisted society where women have more rights than men, what happened to achieving equality?

on the other hand her father should stop sheltering the girl and throw her out into the real world. it will do her good

It is a great job if you can get it :-).

There are many people who don't have a concept of money and would rather have everything given to them. The problem is that if the gravy train runs out, then they are in a world of hurt.

I think that people like this are harming themselves and causing problems, but the fact is that their spouse allows them to do that, perhaps in part due to control issues.

Sometimes this behavior adversely affects everyone when they go bankrupt. This cost is spread to everyone.

The fact is that if you can not support yourself, then you are depending on others.

I don't appreciate your generalization of females. We're not all like that. Most of us work for a living and take care of budgeting to make sure that we aren't overspending.
As for the women that you have described, I couldn't agree more. If they're in debt, they need a job. It's that simple.

We like to be taken care of. We like to shop. But some women don't realize that not everyone is in a situation where they can be alright without a job. Very few people can. It's selfish to make other people work harder so you can be taken care of.

MYOB. Thank God she's not your kid. Also, if she was raised with the princess mentality when she was a kid, then it's the parents problem. although she could change that if she wanted.

Also, I think you should not be generalizing like that. I'm a woman who works at my own business and who invests, so we are not all slackers as you seem to think.

Some womens heart just isn't in their home. Some people just aren't genuine any more.
