My husband (40s) and I (40s) have been married 20+ years. He put me through college and I got a good job after and have kept it since (almost 20 years). For the past 10+ years, he has worked on his family’s place for minimal pay and has done all the running around with the kids and is now taking care of his mom. This arrangement has worked very nicely for us. One kid is done with college and the other will start soon. We have a decent 401k/IRA account that we’re contributing to, have no debt and have life insurance on both of us. I had a health scare recently and it makes us worried about his finances if something should happen to me. Our health insurance is through my job. Is there anything we should do to make sure he’s ok if something happens to me? Will he get the social security I’ve earned? We’ve been a good team at this thing called life and it sucks to have to think about this so seriously at our age. Thanks for any advice.
