Take the L

Today, I now accept how stupid I was to marry a man whose plans for the future all start with, "When I win the lottery…" FML

When he wins the lottery you ain't gonna get a dime with that attitude.

Start all your plans with "After my husband gets his future straightened out..."

That's when she divorces him and takes half the money.

OP's husband sound like a guy full of faith and a good solid plan in his life.

Unfortunetly, faith and plans don't go your way all the time... he should atleast have a back up plan in life to live his current life... before he wins the lottery.

how do you know he doesn't already have a plan but is also planning for the lottery as a "what if". could always have a plan everyone else doesn't know about. including his wife for whatever reason.

If the husband had a real plan and the lottery was just a "what if", it wouldn't be an FML.

Well OP all I can think of is convince him to start making something with his life. Best of luck to you both!

Basing your future around winning a lottery is stupidly optimistic. I can't wait to see his optimistic views collapse in a hilarious way when he realizes that it just isn't viable.

I have no idea why you keep getting thumbs down, I happen to completely agree with you.

If you love him, you made the right decision. Hope he wins soon OP.

Dreaming will only get you so far. Gotta work for it too. Hope his plans change and/or come true -for your sake and his.

My mom does the same thing. I don't really see how that's a bad thing.

It's a bad thing if you use it as an excuse to not work for a living or do anything. And it's still more healthy to have realistic dreams to work towards than just putting all your future desires up to luck and a prayer.

Ah. I came back to this FML and I noticed that I misread it a little bit. I didn't realize that OP's spouse was relying on the lottery. I also meant that my mom just fantasizes about winning the lottery. My apologies.

I wonder what that poor guys response to this FML would be. More like FHL
