OP here. We can afford it but he spends so much unnecessary money that we could save it and use it for other thing.

Here are some examples

- He never looks at prices at the grocery store. He will easily spends double what I would spend.

- He constantly is buying new cups, plates, and bar stuff when we rarely drink. He busy super expensive alcohol he never drinks because he collects it.

- He has spent about $75k in the past 6 months for his “ man cave” and workout room.

- He bought a very expensive coffee machine and a ton of expensive coffee.

- He will go out to dinner and drop $500 on dinner.

He says we have more than enough so he doesn’t need a budget. We have good incomes, savings, an emergency fund so he doesn’t feel he needs to save that money. [/quote]

OP you are right about this!
One thing that might help is to increase 401K contributions on both yours and his (if you can) by a few percent - that way there is less coming in to spend and at least you know some of the extra is being saved and invested!
Don't back down.[/quote]
