Brother in law on account

My husband has a separate savings/checking account. I found out about it accidentally quite a while back. I told him at the time that I wouldn't have cared if he told me he was going to do it. What I didn't know was that his brother is on the account. I found out about this also accidentally just today. He didn't want me to see the paper. I asked him why his brother was on his account. His answer was that I was at work at the time and his brother just happened to be with him that day, and that he would do.:wtf: I asked him why his brother is on his account and he couldn't give me a straight answer. I told him do I look stupid? Do I have it written on my forehead??. You don't HAVE to have someone on your account. You do it because you want them there. Again I asked him why his brother was on his account and he wouldn't tell me. He also has a rollover account. I went with him years ago, and he had me put down as the beneficiary of the account if something happened to him. I also asked him if there was anything else he had changed? He said nothing. What I am afraid of is him changing the beneficiary to one of his family members. We are far from rich. As a matter of fact, we are in financial straights right now. After this incident today, I have come to realize I need to protect myself financially somehow. What do you all think of this? Oh, and did I tell you my dad did the same thing to my mother. Had a secret account. How the hell does lightening strike twice in one family?
