[quote=Anonymous]I've fought with my spender husband about this for our whole marriage. The only thing that's worked is to give him a spending limit. What I discovered early on is that even though we make similar amounts, the stark difference is that I have financial goals and he doesn't. He thinks, gee, I make so much more than my parents ever did, how can it not work out? But my in laws are not spenders at all. It's not easy. My only suggestion is to agree on the basics and let the rest go, just like with how clean is clean enough in the house. Good luck![/quote]
