Blesphil:
its not always true.
Besides whats with the secrecy anyway? except u have other things to hide.#my opinion
I can be open to my wife in any aspect but not the money. I don't like when a woman will be putting her searchlight on me. Where she expect me to release all when I can would want to use some for my personal use. She will come with the trickish word, 'i'm I not your wife'. And again if you open up, she still won't believe you even if she may feign trust but inside her she feels that no man at all will tell you everything. So its better you become the Cain that you are.

wysenas: Its not ideal.it means if u hv a friend or junior staff who need yur financial help,yur wife must approve it.so men,be wise.its not everything u disclose just becos u are married.we are african and our life pattern differs 4rm d white.remember d family's responsibilities like brother,sister and cousin,mum,dad are there 2 cater for.so d national assembly in yur house must give approval.

Just take a look at this rubbish!! No, pls take a look at this crap!!

Number one foolish statement: "It's not everything you disclose because we're married".
Number two foolish statement: "It's not ideal".

So, you make decisions in your household without the knowledge and consent of your wife?? And this is what African culture upholds, right??

Ofcourse.i remember back in d days when i was young,my father does not only discloses his salary to his wife but to his children.he shows us his pay slip even when i was in primary 5 till the university. Because of this,i see it to be normal to tell your spouse how much you are earning so as everyone can know how to adjust in the time of suffering and smiling.

What experience shaped this opinion?? Have u been married before??

One important ingredient of a successful marriage is HONESTY.if both husband an wife are honest and they truly love themselves,i do not see any reason why they should keep anything in secret from themselves.

Ooops!guess you have been falling into wrong hands,well, yours will soon come and you also will say it over and over that all men/women are not the same.Just because you are a victim does not mean you should generalise.Goodluck

festusf: Not all women is good to disclose ur salary to becos some are bad.

So why marry a bad woman undecided?Yeah he does and i know what his package is too?Including all employee benefits and bonuses cos we have to be covered i.e he is the beneficiary of my final salary pension scheme and I his.Not necessarily an emotional or lovey dovey issue.But from a more practical financial aspect.As CC said how can we know what we can or cant afford.How do we plan?How do we invest and save for the future?Though he does not compel me to disclose all but He has really taught me financial discpline.I was really a spendthrift.

The day I informed my wife that I got extra cash and I needed it to complete my building project, she reminded me that we need a washing machine. So, I don't disclose everything

I told my GF that my total pay park for the year is 6 million while I earn close to 8 million per annum.I don't think its wise to tell them everything.This will help you save the money you did not discose.My view.

Your wife will readily reveal everything to you if you're very loaded financially way beyond whatever she earns.
Re: Does Your Spouse Know Your Total Salary Package! by chessguru1(m): 9:12pm On Jan 11, 2013
My first impulse was 2 shout a resounding HELL NO!!
But then again am light years away from being married, so am not too qualified 2 give such a comment.
So I use my elder sis as a pointer, and YES she knows my brother inlaws pay slip. And the weird thing (now that I think about it) is that its so natural that she does. I mean why wouldn't she know (especially whn they have shared much bigger secrets btw themselves).
Finally, IMHO I guess the issue of telling or not telling depends on the kind of wife u have in your house.
Some women can have such bad habits and characters (possessiveness, gossip, shoping-addiction,etc) that withholding the true value of his pay slip might be for the best.

I know a guy whose wife gets his salary alert,the mistake came from the guys bank and he has been trying to rectify it with no avail...if not for the fact that he works in the same bank i know he would have sued that bank for breach of privacy and breach of confidential information...what will u do if u were in his shoes?[/quote][/color][quote author=AVECDEO]
