To start with , do your spouse know how much your salary is at the end of the month..

Would you tell her if their is an increment and how much is added??

Well! To me I wouldn't let her know if their is increment because I can't let someone finish the salary for me before I received , last last she will still be the one that take most share...

Maybe I acted wrongly , need your reasons.

If your spouse is still "someone* to you then the marriage needs a help.

The question should be why do people marry whom they don't trust with their finances?

The banks are enjoying so much free monies in dormant accounts because people die and their spouses and family members are not aware of the banks they have accounts.





See you!
You talk as if you don't know dat 70% of Guys/ladies marry due to pressure, poverty or convenience!!

How many Nigerian Husbands trust dier wives and vice versa?
Don't women buy land, houses, etc without d knowledge of dier husbands? sad

So Leave dat Thing!
Anybody dat wants to Hide their Finances, Let him/her Hide! undecided

There shouldn't be a problem if the woman you married was wife material. If you're earning N60K salary she should know how to make that manage the home.... 1 piece meat in your food.... 1 piece in each child's food every 3 days. If you let her know if your salary increase... then you and the children will see a meat increase. So what would you prefer?... as a husband?.... buy extra meat outside to satisfy and fatten yourself?... while those at home continue chugging along the road of malnutrition? If you're a husband ... head of the home ... no problem in letting the wife know... but if you're the man in the house ... then your money is your business.

In all situation and circumstances, use your brain and think deep.

Don't be moved by some lies here. What ever will ensure stability and peace, do it. Not telling him or her may ensure stability. Telling him or her may equally ensure stability. Know what option to take and keep to it.

It's up to you. Then again it depends largely on the kind of person your spouse is. If she's the leechy type, you know what to do.. if shes the prudent type, you know what to do.

As for me, I'm not usually after or particular about someones income because im not ready to disclose mine. So long as you carry out your financial responsibilities as at when due, no qualms.


What will be your own financial responsibilities?
Re: Would You Tell Your Spouse Of Salary Increase by RightToReject(m): 11:33am On Oct 09, 2021
Why not! Being penny-wise and/but pound-foolish is maintaining closeness with your spouse if you don't consider them worthy enough to not only know about your financial conquest and progress but also allowing them unrestricted access to it, especially the expendable.

Do so at your own peril, a man will always need to be a man, what use is being a man is you don't have spare money to play with .

Re: Would You Tell Your Spouse Of Salary Increase by Frakintayo(m): 11:53am On Oct 09, 2021
Income is one the sensitive issues of life. It should be kept secret more often than not. Whenever you inform someone (your spouse, siblings, friends, mentors, children, lawyer, doctor, pastor) about increment in your earnings. You are exposed already, be ready to manage the effects of such action.

I give her the letter.

Hiding is not manly enough too.

Not being straight forward is also an act of cowardice.

If she happen to be somebody I cnt show, I wouldn't have married her in the first place.

However, please do what works for you. There is no

My husband and I are professional colleagues and earn roughly same salary.
We both know how much each of us earn.
I wouldn't be comfortable in a union where I don't know what my spouse earns.
I don't know how people do it.
Transparency is key
