[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is the bread winner and I’m currently applying to graduate schools. He makes a very good living but he is not excessive with his spending. 
He gives me 1k a month and I usually do not touch that money as I’m trying to save to pay off my loans.

Currently we are expecting and so I’ve been working around the house and nesting, purging so we make room for baby things inbetween dealing with graduate school deadlines.

He has a lot of money and different assets I have not been pushy about it but I feel like he should give me more spending money.

I can’t buy expensive things without asking him and I’m usually fine with it but there’s a really nice china cabinet I want that costs
$800 but due to saving for the baby he has said “not right now”

I have a credit card to use at my disposal from him so he’s not all cheap but I do not like feeling strained due to finances

He has enough saves to pay our house out right and over 600k in retirement 
I don’t like this judaxposition I feel sometimes.

There’s money yet he can be cheap. 
Someday I’ll make income but I need to finish graduate school and secure a job but it’s not like I’m not trying to do my part

I don’t understand women like you.  I’d never sign up to have separate bank accounts and live like I’m a child with an allowance.  It’s your fault for agreeing to this to begin with.  Best of luck in turning things around.  [/quote]
