Should The Wife Or Husband Pay For Purchase On A Family Business? by YINKS89(m): 6:51pm On Apr 08, 2022
So I was on Twitter this afternoon when I stumbled on this interesting topic where they where asking if the wife should collect money from her husband for eating in her restaurant.

Nairalanders my question is this if you wife owns a restaurant and you go there to eat are you to pay or if you are the husband that owns the restaurant would you collect money from your wife.

Yes

That's business.
The husband or any other family is a customer when he is in the restaurant.

You sound like both of them acquire thier businesses without each other's knowledge and support. Is there anything like wife's or husband's restaurant in marriage? Does it occur to you that the restaurant could be the husband's investment. He may put his wife in charge so money can come in for both.

I'm not supporting the man not paying even if it's his investment. He should pay as a standard to uphold the business and avoid credit based on familiarity.

What I'm just trying to signify is the term you used. Wife's business, husband's business. It doesn't portray unity....like each person on his/her own.

If the husband contributed to the restaurant bizness, den he won't pay
otherwise, he has to pay as a customer does.

I won't collect a dime from him especially if he supported me financially in the restaurant business.

I will even be happy he's eating at my restaurant, because I can't go home and still cook for him after a long stressful day.

BUT, there is always a way I will collect back every single penny he ate at my restaurant without him noticing at alllll. Trust me he won't even know he's paying his bills.

So, I will always allow him eat anything he wants at my restaurant.

what if the business has been in existence before marriage or before they knew each other? Have you ever thought of that?

even if he does, don't you think if he decides not to pay after every meal it's affecting the business.

very simple

but no clear answer it depends on what the staff was told on how to deal with relatives especially hubby or wife aka the policy of the restruant towards close relatives

eg relatives dont eat together with customers, they go to the kitchen get food and eat in the staff room

mixing with customers can confuse staff who to serven1st etc priority is not relatives but customers

problem with most africans is they want to be known by customers as owners treated like a special customers, whereas they should humble themself

there are hundreds of ways I will use to manipulate him to make sure he pays. But he won't know.

This is marriage we are talking about here please. So because of a meal a day the wife will run on losses or run down the business? You guys are complete jokers. I am not paying sha, whether I supported you in opening the business or not, or the business has been in existence before we met. In marriage everyone must make sacrifices.

Even if it was before they ever met, once they marry, in fact even during courtship, it becomes a united effort and not a one-man or one-woman thing

that's sense of entitlement in my own opinion why not leave the person to do his or her thing then you support where necessary.

that's where problem starts coz your friends would start coming and might have that mentality also, do you think you are setting a good example there

Is that not a united effort already? Would you support who you're not united with?

You guys think marriage is theoretical

Women like it when they are receiving from men. For your peace of mind as a husband; even if you are the one that set-up the restaurant, always pay after eating.

If my husband doesn’t pay that means everyone related to me shouldn’t pay after eating in my restaurant.
