My dh works 2 full time jobs one from 2pm-10pm and another from 10.30pm-6.30am so I'm sure your bf could find 2.5 hrs per day to study around a full time job.
I understand about short term pain long term gain but I worked more around a full time uni course, maybe once he has got into the studying mindset you could re visit finding a full time job?
Is your husband Superman? He must be to work 16 hours a day on a maximum of 6 hours sleep. Even slaves are not worked that hard.Current MFD 1st July 2026
