Yea its advisable for either spouse to know each other wages and related income, at least courtesy demands so. But what I won't encourage is anyone dictating to the other how they should spend his/her earnings. I will disclose mine when I get to that stage

But in a normal straight relationship, grin... I don't think a man should hide anything from his wife... Not money, not anything, except maybe he's planning a surprise trip for the family and he needs to stash away some cash secretly for that purpose, I use secretly because if she knew, she would ask him about it and he may be forced to lie,...

In marriage there should be transparency... Utter absolute transparency, I'm not reasoning like the "standard African man" that feels a woman should be held at arm's length when it comes to declaring his financial status, but I'm speaking from what I believe is the biblical perspective that describes a man and a woman becoming "ONE FLESH".. If the man is the head and the wife is the neck, how would you hide whatever it is you're into from your neck... Are you going to" twist" your neck like a bird-flu infected fowl because you don't want your spouse to know what you earn.?

I understand that some spouses can take this for granted but it all boils down to getting married to the "right" person.. If the both of you have earlier discussed about key issues like this while courting, then at least you would know what the other person deems acceptable or not

Women are so good in making calculations around the man in their lives. I wud not want my wife to know my salary. It doesn't take long before they start asking you WOT DID U DO WIT UR SALARY the moment u start spending money on somethings dat the wife is not supposed to be aware of. My opinion though

And why would you spend your money on something your wife would not be aware of; this is your wife we're talking about not some random girl friend

It's a none issue, at least, to me.

I think it's my duty to tell my wife how much I earn.

Infact, shes seems my payslip at the end of every month....
