    My wife still feels bad about spending what she regards as my money. When we moved, we had a pile of cash left over from the first sale - she insisted that it was all mine, since I paid the mortgage and she didn't.

    Sill feels a bit weird - my parents always had a joint bank account and mum didn't work; her parents have separate accounts, both work, and her dad gives her mum cash on a weekend towards the housekeeping. My parents approach seems strange to her, her parents approach seems strange to me.

        Absolutely right! At a place I was at recently, a bunch of sales weasels were deriding the guy (same age band as the weasels) who empties the bins and cleans the toilets, so I pointed out that if he and others like him didn't do it, then they'd have to empty their own bins and clean the toilets themselves.

              Couldn't you suggest some kind of way she could 'earn' the right to spend your money?
              Some special 'treat'.. say a threesome with her best mate?

                  and a Gayer
                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
