This is about so much more than the kitchen, The Moneyist says.

I am a 34-year-old with a degenerative neurological condition that gives me somewhere between five and 10 years to live.

My wife, on the other hand, is vehemently opposed to spending any of our savings given my certain demise in the next decade. While I understand her position, it seems a bit conservative to me, and I’m frustrated at her absolute opposition.Thank you for your letter and for sharing your story. Before I get into the logistics of kitchen costs and house values and savings and financial security, I wanted to say one thing: Whatever is really going on here, it’s not about the kitchen.

Don’t miss: My elderly father refuses to use his oxygen tank — will our stepmother get all his money if he dies without a will? Sometimes it’s frustrating to answer a question with a question. But I do have one more question for you. Would this project give you something you can start and finish before you die? It is big enough for you to feel a great deal of satisfaction when it is complete. After all, this is where you talk and eat. It would be a gift to your wife — if she did not regret spending the money and was able to sit in it and think of you.

Some couples experience old age together. Others lose their partner without warning. You are able to put your heads together and draw up a road map for the time you have left, and that is no small gift.
