[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are already swimming in the money you have gotten. I'm a SAHM and I get like an iota of what you get, and I have no idea where the money we're supposedly saving is going.  I too am afraid to ask for more, but I think you have it pretty good.[/quote]

This thread totally started wrong. I should not have mentioned our HHI or my disabled brother. What I wanted to know was whether SAHMs received money from their DH since SAHMs don't earn an income. I was hoping some SAHMs woupld chime in and say their DH put $X into their retirement account or receive $Y per month to use as they please (mani/pedi, gifts, going out).

I started the conversation with DH last night. Did not mention my family at all. Think DH suspects I want to be able to spend money on that childhood friend. If I wanted to go on a girlfriend getaway to Europe with a friend, DH would have no problem with it. If I was willing to stay at a 4 star hotel instead of a 5 star hotel but pay for my friend's plane ticket, I want to be able to have that option. I would rather have a budget per month or year to do as I please.[/quote]

My husband puts money in my retirement.  Who cares.  You are spending an insane amount of money.   [/quote]
