Hi,

quick question about married finances...

my DP has quite a big credit card balance from before we met, but it's manageable by him and he has quite a big salary too.

i have a small salary, small savings and no credit card debt.

we're marrying in October. if the worst were to happen and he died after we marry, do i inherit his credit card debts? would i have to pay them off on my salary?

if so, i think we need to sort out some life insurance on him.. as his salary/expenditure/debt is far more than i could ever earn or pay.
