My husband had it when he was married and his ex refused to get a job and his income couldn’t cover 4 of them. It clears out within few years.

Until it clears out you live within your means. Your husband wants to live above his means with his parents, his first wife, then his second wife footing his bills. It shouldn’t be happening. Say no. Don’t cave. He has to live within his means
Yep -- that's what I say too. If he cannot afford to buy a couch himself, I am not financing it and I am not putting it on a credit card either.

Trust me -- I've been putting down my foot a LOT to help him live within his means/our means.

He filed for bankruptcy nearly two years ago I think.
