Debt is shared by husband and wife
DEAR ABBY: I am one of
your male readers, and this is
the first time in 30 years of
reading you that I have writ
ten. You were right to tell the
woman who ran up $17,000
in debt to tell her husband,
but you missed an important
point. He sounds like my son
in-law, someone who has
ignored his fiscal responsibilities in his mar
riage. The husband may be the breadwinner,
but he acts more like a teenager who turns his
earnings over to the family and accepts an
allowance. He has been hiding his head in a
bucket of sand, but unless she arranges the
“telling” in the company of someone he
respects, he will lay all the blame on her. That
third party should be prepared to lay it on him
a little. Didn’t he ever look at a bank state
ment or a credit card bill?
That woman may have a big problem, but
her husband’s is just as large or larger.
P.S. IN FLORIDA
DEAR P.S.: That letter generated mail from
both sexes. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: I thought your reply to
“Drowning in Debt” was amazing. No wonder
there’s so much credit card debt in this coun
try, when people like you use the existence of
the whole credit card problem to justify the
overspending of the individual, i.e. “everybody
else does it.”
Your advice should have been short and
simple: Tell your husband immediately, pay
off the debt, and live within your income by
living without what you cannot afford. When
the debts are paid off, put into savings the
amount you had been paying on debt reduc
tion. Judging from the lady’s whining, I imag
ine she considers herself a victim in our new
society of victims.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June
14). Confidence is high and
recognition puts you ontop.
Start that big venture, but plan
carefully. You’ll be surprised
when adream comes true this
month. In July, make a big
career move.Ybur future lights
up when backers offer support
in October. Friends take you
aboard an exciting new project
in November. Your lucky love
signs are Leo and Taurus. Your
lucky numbers are: 11, 49, 2,
19 and 3.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
A lover has something to tell
you, but is keeping quiet
because he or she thinks you’ll
get angry. Be available for
communication. Let this person
know you are committed and
want to hear what he or she has
to say.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Organization is key today. Pay
your bills promptly. A returned
phone call will lead to
romance. Bank statements and
records show that you’re better
off than you thought. A Pisces
offers fun and possibly
romance this evening.

ful. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: My wife also took care of the
bill-paying for the better part of 41 years.
Only when she passed away did I discover
how deeply in debt we were. To this day I
regret not keeping a closer eye on our check
book.
Your advice to “Drowning” was outstand
ing, but should include the husband. After all,
he undoubtedly helped incur some of the
debts. He should be willing to work with his
wife to pay them off. It takes two to tango.
SMART TOO LATE
DEAR SMART TOO LATE: Please accept
my sympathy for the loss of your wife. I agree
that it takes two to tango. It’s sad, but some
couples find it harder to talk about money than
they do about sex. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: I applaud you for recommend
ing that “Drowning ’ contact the National
Foundation for Credit Counseling. The staff is
wonderful, caring and helpful. Tne biggest
problem some people have is admitting to a
stranger that they have failed. But once you
do, the counseling service helps you get
through the rough times and on to financial
freedom. Thanks again, Abby, for sharing
information about that wonderful program
with the public.
CONSUMER GRADUATE
DEAR GRADUATE: You’re welcome!
Under the star's gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Independence is foremost, but
staying around for a loved one
will be worthwhile. Speaking
before groups or becoming
more active in volunteer orga
nizations is beneficial. A
Taurus is willing to meet you
on your terms.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
A family member is trying to
tell you something take a
break and listen. Level with
advisers and friends, and you’ll
get immediate help. Travel
plans should not be altered.
Invest in real estate, stocks and
new businesses.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A
philanthropic endeavor leads to
financial gain as a result of the
contacts you meet. Past frugali
ty pays off. Family diverts your
attention from trivialities. Even
though you are skeptical, love
will endure a long-distance
relationship.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept 22).
Romantic situations seem to
elude you. If you change your
appearance, love will flourish.
You’re inhibiting some area of
creativity that could benefit you
if you’d explore it further.
Travel is an excellent remedy
for what ails you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A
move or career change seems
to be around the comer. You’ll
know what is right for you with
advice from a friend. A Virgo
or Taurus may be lucky in love.
A romantic proposal is always
exciting, either from you or
given to you.
LUCKY SHE’S NOT MY
WIFE
DEAR LUCKY: I told her to
tell her husband and that, with
the assistance of credit coun
seling, they could resolve this
problem. I did not feel that lay
ing more of a guilt trip on her
than she was already reeling
would be constructive or help-
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Negotiations should be con
cluded today for the greatest
financial gain. Influential
friends are eager to include you
in new projects. A marriage
partner is afraid of change.
Don’t worry, reassurance
improves a relationship.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). A family situation may
seem confusing but go with the
flow, you’ll laugh in the end.
Frustration hinders creativity.
Don’t waste fruitful time.
Develop concentration by train
ing your mind to stay on one
endeavor today.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). A casual encounter in the
morning leads to a great friend
ship. Forgo immediate satisfac
tion for a dream that has not
yet happened it will soon.
Relatives may dictate to you.
You are given more authority at
work.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Travel, even close by,
proves to be extremely uplift
ing.
There is plenty of assistance if
you share your plans with the
world. You are hopeful, but
remember that slow, careful
work is more reliable than a
whimsical wish.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Your current employment
offers greater use of your ideas
and your imagination.
Happiness goes hand-in-hand
with the prospect. Relief from
your routine brings all kinds of
new ways to define yourself.
