Question:

Answers:
"We'll never be homeless" is not good enough for many women.

Maybe she's worried sick about retirement, when you guys can't work anymore. She probably have higher standard as for what it means to have enough money. Also, believe it not not, your attitude might worry her more than anything else.

Help her to get a well-paying job, maybe?

Discuss it with her what would make her stop worrying, i.e. what cashflow or lump sum in the bank would make her more relaxed. Think about it together how you can achieve that. Maybe she will agree with you that you're doing OK once you talk to her rather than being dismisive about her worries.

its just what we do... just assure her everything's fine
