your DH conducting audit? Then you must use your womanly wiles to direct his attention elsewhere :evil: :rotflmao:

No receipts, no record, no accounting books......no way to audit :evil:

I'm clueless too how much is our monthly expenses.
Aiyo, too busy watching drama & surfing kiasuparents, no time to work on excel

Hate excel...only use Word bcos of son's work. Addicted to kiasuparents and what's going-on in the forum.

Some hubbies will give allowance; some give half their income; rare few may even hand over their whole income to their wives to manage. So it depends...and for those SAHMs who work from home, they may have other arrangements.

Hi mummies, any of your hubbies give you a monthly allowance to manage the household? Or some lucky ones ;), his whole pay and you hold the purse string?

My DH gives me a monthly allowance to pay bills, kids' school fees and stuff. For myself, I hardly buy anything for myself because once I have kids, I seem to be only shopping for them.

I thought, it's the norm that DH will give allowance once become a SAHM?

[Angelight]

Sleepy, you're one lucky lady! So do you give your DH a monthly allowance?

Mine gives me a personal allowance (which he gave me even when I was working ) and pays for all household expenses. I give my mother an allowance from my personal allowance and DH also pays for my insurance.

In my case DH is the one who does the Excel


Angelight - True that I could save quite a bit when I was working. Now have to be quite thrifty until DH gets his bonus and I can ask for a portion of it

[Angelight]

Yeah, for a single-income family, we have to be more thrifty cos no extra moolah to spend. I'm the family's Minister of Finance as I get to decide what to spend on family expenses. But major finance decisions are decided by DH cos he is the CEO.
