re: #213 Mostly sane, most of the time.

His frugality is to the point of insanity. I’m serious.

I’m married to Mr. Frugal, but he would never suggest not having a house.

My brother-in-law was married once, about 30 years ago. His wife (who thought she was marrying a rich doctor!) got tired of his cheap-ass habits, and one day her boyfriend came with a U-Haul and they emptied out the apartment.

My BIL did not contest the divorce because he didn’t want to pay a lawyer, and the ex-wife got to keep all the stuff she looted. California, community property. Fortunately they had no kids. This may be why he has never lived in another house or apartment.

My mother-in-law kind of enabled this behavior over the years by making him think that nobody was good enough for him.
