Having experienced extreme swings in income for the last few years, I have found that anxiety about becoming poor is worse than being poor. As long as you have enough money for shelter, food and medical care--money does not make us any happier. Time marches on for us all. When you are at the end of your life--what do you think would make you feel the best about yourself--that you were loyal to your husband or that you were assertive and took a chance. What is it that you want the most in life? You say you will lose money if you leave. What else do you lose?
