Not sure where else to get advice on this as family and friends aren’t really much help and I don’t know what else to do.
back story as concise as I can manage
Ever since we first got together (15 years ago) my husband has always said in the future he would like to be a property investor and eventually retire from his 9-5 and pursue this full time.
He’s tried attending various training courses to support this endeavour and regularly joins webinars to try and brush up on his knowledge.
A few times in between different 9-5 jobs he has attempted to go for it and buy a property to refurb etc. but has always (essentially to be blunt) chickened out. Then time goes on and still he doesn’t do anything about it. But every now and then he will blow up and have a huge meltdown saying how he hates his job, wants to quit and do property investment but then now we have a child he feels like he can’t just take a big risk like that etc and then talks himself out of it.
now It just feels like fucking Groundhog Day and I’m sick of it. I’ve always been so supportive and told him to just go for it, helped out investigating this but of legislation, going to training courses etc with him, apart from actually fully learning about property investment myself and doing the work for him, I’m not sure what else I can do.
He probably thinks I’m being the most unsupportive bitch wife ever, but I honestly just cannot hear it anymore.
I don’t want him to be stuck in a job he hates for ever, but if he really wants to something else then he just needs to go for it and stop fucking talking about it and driving me bananas!!
He goes on and on about not having enough time, but then there’s plenty of time when he’s just sat scrolling on his phone (I know we are all guilty of this, me included) and I can’t help but think if he really wanted to do it, he would just do it.
I’m a SAHM so if he did quit his job we wouldn’t have an income which would obvs put the pressure on.
Anyone have any words of wisdom for me?
