Is it an age old myth that this is even possible?? My ****ing wife just doesn't get it! We lost her salary since we moved and her health benefits and have kid #2 on the way and she just keep spending. Oh this shirt was only $3, this was only $4, yeah, it all adds up.
I keep telling her she is going on a budget but she has no concept of money or finances. It drives me freaking nuts and I cannot get another bill for $500 or $1,000 that I am not expecting.
My ex used to put a thousand a month on the credit card... just from home shopping network!
Works both ways LK .Hubby is the spender in this family and it drives me ****ing crazy. I thought by getting him a new bike he would quit blowing all his money on parts for his projects .The week after he bought the new bike he blew 300 on an engine for a new bike project.
When it comes time to buy groceries and she is hungry, tell her how good that new shirt she bought tastes![]()
Lk,
You need to blow up to make your point than when you have her attention have a stern
but compassionate discussion......
Have you tried to PIITB?
its hopeless i gave up
Give them a prepaid card so when it's empty they can't buy shit else with it.
I'm lucky my wife hates shopping, the only one that buys stuff is me buying PL gear![]()
Man that's a tough one.
Being seperated going on divorced , I don't think I'm in a position to give advice on these matters.
Take away the cards ... Alot cash to her for the necessities
Been trying for quite some time, if you figure out a way please let us all know.
