    Default Article on husband that can't save money

    http://money.cnn.com/2006/03/17/pf/m...n=money_latest

    It's hard when a spender and a tightwad get married.

    If the wife was really a "tightwad" they wouldn't be eating a $12 pizza! With or without the $150 bottle of wine.

    Great link! I also enjoyed the man's point of view.

    I think I would FREAK if my husband spend that much money on a beverage!

    Is it just me, cause she doesn't sound too frugal!! Country clubs, wine, etc.??? We don't even buy soda - name brand or otherwise - much less $150 bottles of wine!! But I liked what she said about the cc ; my dh's cards have "diappeared" before, too - into my pockets!! HAHA
