Should A Wife Know How Much Is Her Husband's Salary? by popp(m): 8:35pm On Jan 13, 2015 |
Hello people! The year is still fresh,so I still have to say happy new year to you all. Please, would like to ask if its necessary for a woman to know how much her husband is paid as salary or how much he makes as profits should he is a business man. I'm looking forward to reading your reactions. |

Happy New Year! Yes, she should and he should know how much she earns, they are a family, they should not keep such things secret. |

Unless you want to breed distrust in your marriage - YESSS!! The downside is she would nag you over and over about what you use the money for. Like me ma |

My wife sees my payslip almost every month. She's my wife. I have nothing to hide. Besides, that openness breeds more bond between us. It also limits what she can request from at a given point in time. However, what works for one home may not work for another. Everybody should analyse their spouse and determine the most peaceful and appropriate style of management. Seriously, a wife should know her husband's take home. 8 Likes |

Not only should she know..... she should be the one managing it... in that way u will have peace, trust and love. Also she won't be asking you for money 247.... she will be spending which they love and you will be Observing like a boss and any one you don't approve she can't spend. its a greater position of power for the man self. |

chimkaire:I like making some surprise investments, which are just purely towards giving a better life to the family and nothing remotely related to infidelity. Having to explain this always spoils the fun, and nagging that may follow if I don't provide explanations is what I would like to avoid. You understand right? 1 Like |

The couple should be aware of what each earns as they have become one and it helps in planning their finances. It also encourages accountability in the union. l am not comfortable with couples who shields their business dealings away from each other though they may think it is for the best interest but most times it backfires in cases of untimely death. Truth is no one is guaranteed tomorrow and we should be conscious of this at all times. Many dependants have gone through unnecessary hardship because of the secrecy surrounding the finances of the deceased breadwinner. There are some who left behind bank accounts their spouse knew not of nor can they claim, so the bank holds on to it while dependants are left in a lurch! 2 Likes |

stinggy: That is not a reason. You won't be accounting every dime you spend. Her knowledge is to help her to plan better and know when to ask for money for her Brazilian weave. I don't see anything wrong if the kids also have a general idea of what you earn.There are times I could have asked my dad for some money when he had just gotten his salary but I wouldn't if it wasn't a priority because I knew what he must use the money for or what he had used the money for (if it fell within the month). |
Re: Should A Wife Know How Much Is Her Husband's Salary? by Nobody: 4:05am On Jan 14, 2015 |
stinggy:I don't want to. Your salary is what she needs to know "how much you earn" not what you intend doing with it |

A man should strive to make more money than his wife in particular and family at large can not be able to outspend on necessities . This way there will be no need for the woman to start nosing around to know her man's financial worth . And with this formula , constant peace will become a normal thing in the family . Wages is for living , while profit is for fortune . I hail all profit chasers around . 1 Like |

Do you noticed that all the ladies above me said YES and the men are either indifference or NO Anyway, that's their cup of tea But before I comment, let me ask - why are ladies too bent on knowing what their husband earns ? does it have anything to do with distrust (infidelity) by ladies about their husbands?? |

If they are on d same page about their financial needs, it's ok to let d other party know . But where d other person is financially reckless, it's a no no. |
