    Fiance's parent's retirement (need advice)

    I think I may have painted the picture more negative than it really is. Thank you for your advice, but I think the good things outweigh the difficult. All relationships have difficulties that they have to overcome and we've been pretty good at it. I'm no longer concerned about this financial...
