15,000K is definitely not enough but a lot of women don't even get one kobo from their husbands from year to year. Believe me. God is our strength. |

Now I know that many people on NL do not bother to read and understand a post before responding to it. People are actually asking this woman to go get a job, she already stated that she has a job and is complementing what her husband gives her. The problem is that the husband does not want to acknowledge it and this is the point that Ujujoan has been trying to make. I do not believe that the man does not know it is not enough, this is a strategy by the man to remain the LORD that he believes he should be, he knows if he should admit that he is benefitting from the wife's income in anyway then he will be expected to support her in other things. I have seen men who wak Fresh fish, stock fish, snails and all other orishirishi on a low house keeping budget only to tell their wives after several years that they do not know what she has been doing with her money!! |

Re: 15k Housekeeping Allowance For A Month.is It Ok by jaybee3(m): 4:40pm On Oct 27, 2009 |
come to think of it why are we all judging when the woman clearly haven't stated the husband's spending ability. what if the 15k is half his salary? @OP how much does he earn? just give us a range to work with |
Re: 15k Housekeeping Allowance For A Month.is It Ok by WhyAWhy(m): 4:41pm On Oct 27, 2009 |
kai, na wa oh, see as people de fight over another person's business. na to comment only turn to fight like this? Anyway concerning the poster, Lots of people have pointed you in the right direction, I would just advise you to sit your husband down and let him know where all the 15k is going to and where you had to supplement, he is human enough to reason with you. For those thinking that 15k is small/big in magnitude, don't just conclude, we don't know how much the poor guy earns and his other commitments. But Marriage is not one man's palaver oh, na 2 people sign up. Wish you Big Sense |
Re: 15k Housekeeping Allowance For A Month.is It Ok by Nobody: 4:42pm On Oct 27, 2009 |
this is a sample monthly running expense 15k food 10k+ for baby 20k+ for fuelling generator 5-10k for dstv 20k for fuelling car 2k+ for nepa 10K+ for miscellaneous and u wonder why the guy no wan hear oddy enough i had a conversation with a chick in my office she pays for food, and the husband for everything else - nd shes from the same tribe as our dear uju - just to dispel any frightening stereotypes our lady of the 'bobo landed property' may have created about ibo chicks |

Re: 15k Housekeeping Allowance For A Month.is It Ok by axeman85(m): 4:47pm On Oct 27, 2009 |
@poster For pete sake. you asked a question and i am sure you will be reasonable enough to take into consideration what intelligent people who are married or reasonable have said. 15k is small yes agreed but you have been managing it all along so pls continue managing. inugo. pele. i dont know the situation in your household, but it might be your husband isnt financially buoyant or on low income, and as you said yourself, you have been helping so pls continue helping. there are families that the husband earns much buit doesnt give the wife a penny because he believes that after taking care of the fees rent, car, at least the wife should be able to maintain the house. but if ur husbands earns more and you feel he can afford to increase your allowance, then call him in the midle of the night and cajole him to increase it. there are people that receive 50-1million a month for allowance but if you ask them they will still say it is not enough that they are managing. so continue helping your husband and dont mind some people who have come here to shout and tell you it is not acceptable because if you check well, majority of them are not maried and those that are married and are running their mouth if you go to their houses they might even be on less money that that. sorry for the essay. the conclusion is continue managing, but talk about it with your husband . |

@ Poster You should be sincere with yourself & NL advisers. First it depends on what you think. Do you think your husband's income justifies larger amount? If you know his income & how he spends and still thinks he shud av done better, then you deserve to bring your request to your attention. But if you truly know he couldn't av done better considering his income, budget & plans, then continue to help in the little way you can and don't forget to pray for him for buoyant source of income. My husby gives me 15k monthly and it's just the 2 of us. Even though I know the money is not enough, I cant complain because I know his salary, budget & the plans we both have which all depends on the budget. Above all, cherish your marriage and thank God 'cos there a million of women out there that are not ready to even collect any Kobo all they want is just to bear the husband' name. Like soundsultan wud say "oko won lode" |

Since you've decided to tell the whole world how much your hubby gives you as monthly housekeeping allowance,you should also tell us how much he makes every month(and maybe how much you too make monthly),that way,we'd be able to "judge" him accurately.Why would you have nairalanders pass judgement on a man that maybe earns N20k a month(assuming that's what he earns monthly or even less),out of which he gives you N15K for house-keeping. Your info is incomplete BTW,your hubby is your hubby,you know how it is with you,him,your child and your home,better sit down with him and work on your finances and quit coming to nairaland to seek advice for your small domestic issue that can be resolved with candid explanation on your part.You will only end up getting mostly useless advice from people who maybe even don't have husbands yet(they may become abusive of your husband and may even tell you to fight him or leave him,do you want that) or some that have and they get N15K daily for house-keeping (all fingers are not equal,I believe you've been reading the papers and must have read of those bank officers and customers that defrauded banks of billions of naira,abi you no know say some of their wives and girlfriends dey nairaland here,you wan carry your innocent husband compare those ones no try am ooo) or don't you know also that there are some that get even less than your N15K monthly for house-keeping but they will pretend that they get millions per month and tell you that your husband is a devil,my dear,use your tongue count your teeth Peace to you and your family |

oyb: Honey you dont read well do you? I said if it's agreed for the woman to take responsibility, there's no problem with that! But if the man wants to take the responsibility, he should provide enough. If he dosent provide enough, he should acknowledge he's not doing that and appretiate the woman's input. Not for him to be claiming right! |

Some Nigerian men never cease to amaze me, how can you give your wife N150=$100 for the whole month? Even the baby food alone surpass $100/month. You must be a very humble wife to be contemplating if it was enough or not. |
