Help, my wife wont stop spending!

[Alf W]

I left my permie job last year during the onset of the recession to gamble on getting a long-term contract, with more money...

After a month on the bench - my luck came in and taadaa i landed a cushdie number - 7 months later im still here trying to stash the cash, but my wife keeps spending it?!

I havent saved a pennie from this contract and im worried next year, im gonna be benched?!

I ask you CUK - How do you handle le wife and finances?

Presumably there's a fair chunk retained in the company accounts. You didn't take it all out now did you?

What are you her pimp or something - FFS!

OK, maybe the phrase should have been She knows she'll have to go back to work rather than She knows she'll be sent back to work

Get divorced. That will save loads of money wont it.......

I did that and the long term savings have definately been worth it.

My (soon to be ex) wife turned our home into a Dorothy Perkins store.

So I saw her reckless spending and raised her one decree nisi.

Simples.

what's the fuss

why not order a new wife from the catalog

[original PM]

every time she spends money take her up the oxo tower.

that way she will assocaite spending money with a bit of pain and stop doing it.


or she may start enjoying it and then you need to find another solution

You could chop her up and put her in the freezer.
