Would you accept a helping hand from In-Laws?
Or rather future In-Laws?
Suppose you are engaged to this chick whose father is loaded, he proposes to help you financially and offers ...........let's just say a fancy furniture store in your name. Would you accept it?

You shouldnt accept anything from him. If he wants to give let him give it to his daughter. Men should are isuppose to be incharge of their households and finance is a major thing.
Whoever has the money will have the power. As simple as that .
You can only do that if you are a confident guy! I mean supper confident!

Re: Would you accept a helping hand from In-Laws?
a 'fancy furniture store in your name', seem biger than just a helping hand.
if you are too proud to take it, accept it and put it on your wife's name; that way he never realy gave you anything...lol
on a serious note, i have to say its hard to say yes or no. we dont realy know the kind of relationship you have with the dad and the family in general. how close are you to him? what does the wife think about the idea...
but hey, take it...dont want to be acused of been rude do you?.

Re: Would you accept a helping hand from In-Laws?
Luggoyo,
Wallaahay this is a very critical question...It all depends on the situation of the business offered, the relationship between you and your-in-law, his personality, your expertise of running business, his expectations...
To be honest, if I were you I wouldn't accept it. At least not right away...Why not wait for a while?
I am sacred of people's money....

Re: Would you accept a helping hand from In-Laws?
not a bad idea..if my father would offer my husband such a deal, my husband would be indebted to my father and i can most certianly benefit from this.

I agree with Leila. Why would you accept anything from your in-law? specially when you're the man? And which in-laws would allow their daughter to marry a man who has less then their daughter? (unless you're a saint which I doubt you are).
The fact of the matter is that if you're not financially stable and your wife is richer then you (which I still question why would she marry you or is married to you?) Either way. Your Fathe-laws money is not for you to take it. Make your own money or get your own business be a man and handle your responsiblity.

Luugoyo,
Take and run with it.
Ever thought of this, "May be you are doing him a favor by taking his daughter away from him ? Who knows furniture may be too little for what you are doing for him."

Ok, Aan idiin balbalaadhiyo.
The chick is from Pakistan, the dude is a Farah and works and makes a decent buck, basically he can take care of his family, he maybe a little stretched here and there, but who isn't?!!
Now, the chick's dad is simply loaded, filthy rich and this fancy furniture store is just peanuts and wouldn't give a second thought, the chick is trying hard to persuade Farah to accept it........................granted that in their culture the chick's dad pays the dowry to the groom................. but Farah is too proud to accept this tempting offer and he turned it down.
Dad is confused, he has never seen anyone like Farah, he gave all his other son-in-laws one thing or another and they all gladly accepted with gratitud. Now the Paki dad is offended and his daughter is in dilemma.
Basra,
I changed my mind, I refuse to be owned and sell my pride for that price, I need more. Tell your dad the bargain is off

Still, ma qaateen lacagtaas walle...Ilaahay amarkii la col baan ahay...Xoolaha dadka...
I would rather live in a two bedroom apartment with my own money than a mansion from my father-in-laws money! I would feel like I am owned! Yes I wouldn't mind and I would appreciate if I was rescued out of terrible tragedy..Even though I would try my best to pay back...But there is no way on earth that I would accept the offer if I can survive...
