Very very on point
Understand that traditionally, it is your responsibility as a husband to sort the finances in the home. All of it.
Having a wife who is willing and able to support you with it is a big deal.
Don’t take it for granted.
She can agree on a financial model with you but it is grossly unfair to take unfair advantage of that, abandoning basic responsibilities to her because you know she would not overlook it.
For instance; refusing to sort the children’s fees because she’s the one that takes them to school and face the pressure is not only unfair but irresponsible.
No matter what you make available for upkeep, chances are she gets to add to it. This deserves recognition and appreciation because in truth, that’s her supporting the home.
Even when you are broke and she loans you; brother, a loan is a loan. Return her money. It is not only the responsible thing to do but it also grows financial trust in the marriage.
She may be wealthy or privileged but that should not generate an entitlement mentality of ownership. No matter how wealthy, women tend to desire men who can take charge.
She is already being amazing supporting you, don’t leave it all to her. Don’t take her for a fool.
