Dear Ann Landers,
y husband is in business with his father, his brother, and his brother-in-law. Frequently my husband has bragged to friends that nothing is down on paper and there has never been anything in writing between them. There are no set salaries. Everybody takes what he needs. I'm not complaining, Ann, because we all live well. But I worry that one day this setup will lead to trouble. Last night I asked my husband what would happen if he died suddenly. He said his dad and brothers would always look after us and not to worry. \\/hen I suggested he get something in writing, he re-plied, "It would be an insult to my brothers." Is he right?- Not Secure

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
