THANKS

May 10th, 2006 at 01:47 am

What great ideas! I often go without spending at all for awhile and that is when i feel that I deserve a splurge. Sometimes it is when i am down, but not too often lately. I really like the idea of picking one or two luxuries and doing them.

On another note, I finally found out how much debt we actually have, it is much worse than I thought...much, much worse. I guess my spouse was using his credit cards all along. I have such mixed feelings about all of this. I have intentionally been spending less and he seems to keep spending more. I asked him to remove the cc's from his wallet. I had no idea. I guess it is some of my own responsibility for not participating more in the financial world. I am now!

    Check out PricePlus's blog, if you haven't already. He's dealing with a similar problem with his spouse, and has tempered his frustrations with grace, good humor, and good advice!

    Keep the communication going with your DH. Sometimes it takes a while for both of you to get on the same page. Set goals together and try to develop a solid spending plan together....If you can work as a team, you will be able to conquer the debt!

    good advice from the 2 replies... make sure you have a happy home.. if your happy at home, you will be happy at work... smile at everything.. life is a game, you just have to learn how to play it... i think only one spouse should handle the finances.
