Answer 1

You are lying to your wife and this marriage is in trouble. You two need to talk this problem out.

Answer 2

I think you are doing the right thing. You are saving just incase of an emergency, and everybody should do so. She may not realize it but it is for her own good. Some people are good at managing money and some are not. You should tell her because she will find out, but do not let her spend from the savings, even if that means not telling her were they are at.

Answer 3

Simple solution - YOU file the taxes, not her. Just have her sign them and move on.

OR, come clean with her and tell her that you are saving the rest. And put her on a budget - this money for the house, this for herself. She doesn't like that, then tell her she can get a job.

Answer 4

She needs to stop spending so much if you're no longer getting the 800 and you need to tell her about it.

Answer 5

Secerts and lies are NEVER the answer. Figure out a way to help her learn to save, and maybe your marrage will improve in other areas too!!

Answer 6

good job

Answer 7
