I am in a quandary. My husband (67) and I (65) are both retired; I do work from home two days a week for around seven hours or so a week now. He takes Social Security while I do not. He had no 401 (k) to speak of. Me working now was to make up the difference.

Dear Annie: I am in a quandary. My husband (67) and I (65) are both retired; I do work from home two days a week for around seven hours or so a week now. He takes Social Security while I do not. He had no 401 (k) to speak of. Me working now was to make up the difference.

I have told him if he wants money, he will need to get a part-time job. He will look online for one but never follows through on it.

In today's Dear Annie column, Annie Lane hears from a frustrated wife whose husband has left her in a financial quandary.
