[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suppose people have different ideas of what a "budget" is. Have you looked at your current spending/saving to see what it would look like without her income? If you're saying a 'budget' as in she gets some type of allowance I could see why she would balk. If you both agree for her to quit but your overall spending needs to be adjusted I would do that first and agree what specifically will be reduced or eliminated (memberships, cleaners, whatever)[/quote] OP here. I make a good amount by low by DC standards. I can cover our costs even now, but I like to be cautious given the current state our economy and possible recession. I’m not going to put her on an allowance like a child, but I think we need to reduce our overall spending. I’m definitely the more frugal one. She has a lot of expenses like gym classes, food meal services, massage memberships, etc., that can be cut or reduced. [/quote]
