"Spending too much" is relative to an individual. Your regular monthly discretionary spending probably exceeds most people's yearly discretionary spending. If she makes $100k, brings home probably $5k/mth where is her money going that she can't buy her own cat, or pay her own credit card bills?. Here we find ourselves in a situation where one spouse - the wife, in this example - spends more money than her husband thinks is appropriate. He's so frustrated and angry that he's thinking of divorce (although he's unlikely to save any money by going through an expensive divorce with all its legal fees!).

690 votes, 441 comments. true I (43M) confronted my wife about her excessive shopping addiction today only to be told that she is perfectly fine. So please let me know if spending $2,000 a month on Amazon and $1,500 a month eating out, $600 a month on clothes and $300 a month in shoes and purses is normal shopping behavior.. Wife Spends Too Much Money can strain a marriage, but practical steps and shared goals help couples balance freedom and financial security together.
