Its unacceptable. If she wanted to spend on the child. Opening an account would have been the best choice. And besides she doesn't know what tomorrow holds. Nwayo o

bennyraz: Were ni yen ke! When i say some women needs beating, some pple criticise me. Is this not full blown madness Well, my advice. Go and open a shop for her to start selling baby stuffs and if she refuses your gesture.. Abeg beat her( oh oh, she just gave birth. That means u have to wait for about a year before pounding her)

Lmao ... Abel no kill me with Laff for here

MRbrownJAY: @OP
as you have stated that it is HER money, then you have absolutely no say in the matter. if you have a problem with her spending habits then you should have dealt with it earlier.
sadly, some women are silly like that when it comes to shopping........... they will even buy stuff they DONT need, if it is on sale.

look at the good side of it, your future children will already have shoes to wear (as we all know that babies outgrow footwear within less than 3 months.


OMG!! You are talking about me right there. You need to see all I've bought over the last month and half, simply because they are on sale. I even have 3 orders pending. Not even because I need them, but because they are on sale. sad

@ OP, take am easy. Just look on the bright side sha. Good luck!

OP,congrats on ur new baby. Since it's her money she used, don't get unnecessarily worked up. U'll be surprised at how little things like this can destroy a marriage if u allow it. Correct her in love,and do it continuosly until she sees reason. Don't resent her. She may have come from a wealthy background and finds it difficult to change. Encourage her daily. Meanwhile,find a way to sell some of the shoes with her consent. I'm sure a lot of new mothers will be interested in buying. 450k is too much for shoes alone.

Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by tpia5: 1:11pm On Jul 16, 2012
Assuming this is a true story, how do you know she didnt buy the items at sale price and not the one printed on the price tag?


Some things arent adding up.

Secondly, i'm wondering why you must open thread on nl instead of discussing the matter with your wife.

Is she a nler?
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by omonikiba(f): 1:12pm On Jul 16, 2012
some women self, their excesses will make their husband a tenant all the days of their lives. from you story am sure you have not seen anything, she only sent some excess luggage, am sure she will buy more and pay money for excess luggage when she is coming. oga ooooooooo, poster, just be happy you are not spending such money on trying to conceive. try and start a capital project like building a house that will make her to be financially supportive, with that she will be prudent in spending. on the other side be prayerful, design her in the way you want in prayers, else some women done make their husbands to fall oooo through this habit, dont be a victim.

Goodluck.

I agree on the bolded absolutely. The reason I asked the question is to know what kind of advice to give. If it is her money, technically, she has done nothing wrong. However, it is quite immoral to spend such a colossal amount on a baby's footwear when others are dying for lack of a few thousand Naira to pay for Malaria treatment etc.

It is her money but you are her husband, this is where you have to show proper leadership. Do whatever it takes (within reason) to curb her frivolous spending. It is better for her to use her money to invest in things that will be useful for her children in the future. Personally, if I had so much money and didn't know what to do with it, I would seek to build a mega business that my kids can manage in the future and hand-over to their children after training them properly. I have seen what your wife is currently doing leads to and it is not a good thing.

Lovingly, bring her down-to-earth and break things down to her like 1-2-3 and A-B-C. This particular woman needs it!

I actually believe him...it's a true story. Check his posting history...he got married to a rich man's daughter in March.
https://www.nairaland.com/892242/it-right-work-ones-father
Since she's already given birth now, it's likely the pregnancy was the reason for the marriage in the first place. Perhaps smiley

She probably has access to loads of cash, but as a man he would like to be the one providing for most of his wife's needs. It has to really irk him that her needs are seemingly beyond what his means can comfortably carry.

I can understand why he's rather unhappy.

sista, you are not to blame, it is in your GENES to shop, its like a drug to y'all. it was even revealed that you ladies go into some kind of o[b]r[/b]gasm when you shop, like and that is why many do lose their minds.

@OP
here is a crazy (but real) fact: WOMEN THINK ABOUT SHOPPING AS MUCH AS MEN THINK ABOUT SEX.
Re: My Wife Spent 450k On Baby Shoes by mrkels(m): 1:39pm On Jul 16, 2012
Wahala, let's just hope she won't insult you when you confront her, like its not your money so shut up.Just try to settle this amicable and try to make her see reasons with you ok. Wasteful spending is nothing to write home about. There's more to life than it, I mean just because the money is there doesn't mean you can abuse it, anyways its her money and she's got every right to do with it whatsoever she desires but there should be a lil caution in the things we do in life.

Your wife if just jeopardizing ur Son's chances of becoming Nigerias future president...

She should remember the clause; "I HAD NO SHOES", is a pre-requisite for becoming a Nigerian President grin
