Utaroz:

The answer to this depends on the type of spouse one has. Some are good fund managers while some are spend thrifts. A spouse whose motto is that "money is made to be spent" may not be the best confidant on such issues. However, a prudent spouse is the best confidant on your income and investment dynamics.

larimo:

one should. it strengthens the union cos there would not be secrets. wisdom should however still be considered when one knows that telling your wife would have adverse/unseen effects on the family based on her personality.

[b][b][b][b][b]I will not disclose how much i earn, but he will disclose his own to me[/b][/b][/b][/b][/b], afterall they say its a man world so i need to know how much he earns to model his obligatory family commitments, and i can support him with whatever i have.

You should thank your God the woman in your live seem to be a dormant housewife.  Assuming I am your wife (thank God I'm not and thank your star for your wife, really!), you would have known there are two types of water (HOT AND COLD WATER ) Angry Angry Angry You see, it is not funny to me and anyone can laugh about this.  I hate lies and deceit especially in a relationship.  Guy, you are so, so lucky!  Sure you'd never play these games with SMART WOMEN.   For the sake of peace and rest of mind in your household, enjoy this FREEDOM now 'cos, it might not last unless your wife has no ambitions of her own and is happy to remains dormant in her married life otherwise, your would have learnt never to disrespect your life partner this way.

Because, you provide her with this and that, gave you the a[b]udacity to marginalise[/b] and treat her like a child, eh! Just wait, this your child-wife will grow up one day and when she does, you will know.  Thank God, Nigeria is developing fast in this area of things and you selfish and wicked husbands/boyfriends, will soon learn your lessons.

D biggest mistake i eva made in my life is to let my spouse knw hw much i earn,

hackney:

Only my boss knows how much i earn.
Not telling your wife is not an indication of trust issues.
It's just a need to have a level of privacy.

After all, why would she even need to know about every single penny?
All she needs to know is when you inform her that either you can afford something or not.
As long as the[b] family is thriving financially,[/b] i dont see the need for all the details.
But then that's just me. . . . . .
