I ain't giving no wifey a dime, the best I can do is to get a well paying job for her and she can use the money from there to take care of the home upkeep, while I focus on capital expenses. I cannot come and kill myself. Imagine paying my wife salary... For what na? I no be bursary or scholarship board. It doesn't mean I can't occasionally buy foodstuffs, give her money or get things for her and family. But it's solely on my discretion and definitely not on a monthly basis. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Wilfredpat22: A late relative's three kids, all three were not his. He died soon after finding out. All the pampering, jeeps/SUVs, money and massive house the young lady enjoyed didn't stop her cheating. So it's not far fetched. For many couples getting married, discussing finances and contribution formula is still almost a taboo. It is assumed the hubby will foot all the bills. But increasingly it's becoming an illusion. The money needed to live to a decent standard cannot be provided by the hubby alone. A woman now needs or wants everything a man needs in addition to traditional female stuff. She needs a car, nice phone and gadgets too. Add that to hairdo, clothes, shoes, make up, children's school fees, clothes, family feeding cost, housing/rent, inlaws/elderly parent', commitment, electricity/gen/fuel cost, etc. A man has to have an unusually well-paid job, avenue to siphon money at work, corruption money, or an extremely successful business venture to carry such load alone. Only a few in Nigeria fall into this category. @OP, how much you need depends on your family's unique situation. No single fixed amount: First & foremost your income. It determines what you can afford. Whether you shop at Shoprite or local market. Then number of people in your family unit, location, taste/living standard you have both adopted, your plans for the future, etc. 3 Likes |

MiztaFabulous:It is not a question of the amount but, the percentage if your earning. 50% is good enough for a low income earner. The remaining 50%, you should save 10%. 40% is yours for how you are led to utilize it. However, for high income earners, the Percentage should keep reducing. |

Marriage is about trust and compromise.Give everything you earn to your wife and let her manage the finances.If she is a prudent woman and she is trustworthy,your wealth will grow otherwise get out of the marriage.This means that if you cannot give your wife all you earn,it probably means you don't trust her and if you don't trust her,there is no reason you should be married to her.Yes my wife takes it all and as a matter of fact,i never fancied being asked by my wife for money.I am happy to work for her. 1 Like |

orbitalgis: Your post simply implies that you lack financial discipline and are incapable of making sound financial decisions. Hence, you delegate financial decision making to your wife. It's not a bad thing to do and as you know your weakness and your wife covers for that. However, you are very wrong to lump everyone in the same box. Not every woman has financial discipline like your wife and in some instances, some men have more financial discipline than you do. In instances as those, your advice becomes invalid. 2 Likes |
