Answer 1

Save your MS-Word documents with a password. Do a "save as" and then go into "Tools" at the top, and then click on "Security Options...". Here is where you have the option of saving the file with a password. Just remember the password, or you won't ever be able to open it.

Answer 2

Open the file you don't want your wife to see.
Go to Tools. Select Options.
Select the Security tab.
Assign a Read password and a Write password. This way, only you will be able to open the file containing your sensitive (present) information.

Answer 3

Yes, you can change the default place where word saves your documents.
Tools > Options > File Locations > Documents > Modify
