nexeee: thanks everyone..your words of advice are invaluable indeed.. hey, stop whining. I'm starting to believe you're just cooking up imaginary stories. when you and your wife decided to plonk down thousands of dollars for her to give birth abroad, you didnt open thread then. the way you're griping and complaining makes one wonder if you didnt know she was rich before you started chasing her for marriage? tales by moonlight. |

ooua: Why am I even reading this post. I could read in between the lines that all is total lies. Man be real and give us true life situations. If you have that kind of money to waste on baby shoes you will not be on this forum... hisss thank you. funky medina: All this poor people on nairaland! On top of her own money. When he went to impregnate a rich mans daughter what did he think? She will allow her child suffer? Its ur insecurity worrying you and you need to work on urself. If she asked you for the money that is a different matter. Boys! Stay in ur social class and stop coming to nl to be opening useless threads. i tire! lord have mercy. notice he didnt mention the stuff she bought for him (the op) himself. Make him siddon there dey dream. |

(Why are people drinking panadol over another person's headache? the overly excited first time mother is from a very rich family, she was born into money & is used to spending it(big time). So 450k is probably nothing to her, maybe the value of 450k to her could be d value of 4k to u & I. @op: u r not on the same page with your wife; u r still on pg1 while she has reached pg50(better run & catch up o!) And as for those talking about "uncertainty of the future" starvation & poor people around us, please!!! give me a break. 1 Like |

@ Poster, that is nonsense... the shoes the baby will outgrow.....i am so crazy with dressing my son up....if you go to his room, you will see clothes and shoes every where, majority of the clothes and shoes are no longer his size, i have over 10 shoes, he has not even tried at all, i give some out as gifts and keep the rest for the next child....if i have girls and no boy again...that means those clothes would be given- out...and God knows as i love to "give", i will cry while giving out some. There should be prudence in spending....that is just too much, you have to save for a rainy day. |

My brother,they are the same when it comes to their first child. Mine filled a big suitcase I came back from U.K with clothes and shoes,even when we had done shopping for the new boy 3 months before his arrival. What I did? I came in one afternoon when she was at work,packed half of he whole stuff,gave it away and hid her cheque book and ATM card...mind you the money for expenses belongs to me o.......she manages a business I set up after marriage and I don't ask her what comes in or goes out,yet the money I paid into her account to keep was used for extra shopping. When the second son came,I was waiting,but I guess she learnt from the first time because I was even the one that asked whether we will not shop for the boy. Make her become disciplined with money,we don't pluck them from trees! 1 Like |

You should know who you married. An extravagant person will never change till they run you down. Always running a race with the Jones's, who have more money than both of you can earn in a life time. Better let her sell them and buy rubber shoes for the boy. They grown out of these things fast, spending that much on baby clothes is a big waste. |

maclatunji: bro, some of these rich people are spending TEN TIMES that amount, and they aint even billionaire. havent you read how much Mariah carey spends on her kids? if someone got it, then who are we to say that it is wasteful spending?! when someone buys a house with 20 bedroom, when he has only one child, people complain. when a guy buys himself a $1million car, people complain. when some ladies buys wedding dresses worth 100s of thousands (while they will only wear it ONCE), people complain. if people worked or earned their money, they have the right to use/spend it the best THEY see fit (as much as "we" may see it as silly spending) |

no matter what it can't be good to give children everything - you can end up raising some extremely fked human beings who will break your heart with their habits |
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by Piyke: 6:26pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
I really fear for some of the views some of us are giving here. some have suggested the OP "run and catch up with his wife's earnings. No wonder, this is why a number of men suppress their wives for fear that the woman may earn more than him if he allows her progress. As far as I am concerned marriage is not a competition where the man is competing to bring in more money, no doubt a man is the provider definitely. I think the point here remains that there should be some agreement in spending between couples. I really respect my wife because she tells me of major spendings that she wants to carry out even though its "her" money and were both wealthy. This act conveys respect and makes me want to do anything for her. Personally as long as I'm doing my best I wouldn't mind if tomorrow my wife starts earning more than me, after all its our money; my money her money, her money my money. 3 Likes |

All these people screaming wasteful spending should give the OP's wife a break!!! 450,000 Naira is roughly $3000, why is this too much to spend if one has the money She has money, and she's spending it on what gives her joy, I don't see anything wrong with this |
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by ifyalways(f): 6:40pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
@OP, whatever you do, don't make the mistake of : Selling or giving out any of those shoes. Confronting your wife or express your displeasure immediately she comes back. If you must talk about this,do so after like 2 months. Btw,if these your stories are true and with all the information you've provided here, someone from your wife's family might see this and you know what that means right? Lol |

oyb: no matter what it can't be good to give children everything - you can end up raising some extremely fked human beings who will break your heart with their habits your kid will have to wear shoes, whether it is the same pair everyday damn day of their life, or having the possibility to choose a different pair from one day to the next. what's next?! parents shouldnt buy too much clothes for their kids (if they wish to do so)?! lol |
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by ronkebp(f): 6:42pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
La Parisienne: All these people screaming wasteful spending should give the OP's wife a break!!! On shoes alone?? if the husband does not see anything wrong he wouldn't have conmplained about it. |
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by LaParisienne(f): 7:02pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
ronkebp: Why is he complaining, is it his money? I'm totally against spending money we don't have. But if we have enough, have key investments and feel like splurging the rest of the money, there's nothing wrong with that. What would you say about people who go on $10,000 luxury vacations and wear $50,000 diamond rings? These are average people ooo, I'm not talking about celebs. I don't see anything wrong with it if they can afford it. We get to live once!!! |

Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by Nobody: 7:23pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
This is ur wife's first child, I'm sure she doesn't know the baby won't use all shoes. To me this is a non issue,if I have 50 million in my account, 450,000 is small for me to spend on my pride and joy. Op just keep quiet, I'm sure after a while she'll give the excess shoes away. I've also noticed that d OP has this poverty mentality, u are complaining about ur wife cooking rich soups for u... Like seriously who complains about good things. @ op lemme tell u d most well behaved boy I met in uni was spoiled silly by his parents, so it depends on u teaching him good moral values, and not being stingy with money. If u are stingy with money and he knows u have money u are tempting d boy to steal. |
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by ade80: 7:29pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
ronkebp: Are the shoes just one size? Maybe she bought different sizes, and how about if she got the things at a clearance store at a cheaper price than that on the tag |
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by 2mch(m): 7:34pm On Jul 16, 2012 |
Are people not seeing that she spent up to N2m in total? Men, goodluck. I hope she bought for all your kids and those yet to come. Newborns can't even wear the shoes for any purpose other than decoration. This will be until they are able to walk before any shoe is needed. Goodluck sha. |
