housekeeping contribution

[The Lone Gunman]

Are you Married or not?

Do you remember your vows?

It is no longer yours and hers, you now share all resources equaly.
Put it in a joint account and spend each according to their need.

After bills, food etc.. are taken into account - the wife gets about £100/week. Which can barely manage to cover her shoe bill - nevermind the jewelry and clothes.

As a married contractor, often working away from home, no mortgage, wife works, no debt

what would you consider to be a fair amount to give the wife every week for house keeping ?

No Mortgage, No Debt, she works and you work away? Why would you give her anything apart from a good seeing-to every now and then?
What are you, a man or a mouse?

Give it all, see what she give you back. Problem solved!

That's actually what I do. Works fine.

Don't joint accounts cause some sort of S660 issue?
