Does your wife do the budgeting, or handle the money? It's a role that many women take on in a relationship that isn't recognized. That would explain why she wants to know what's coming in.
Personally, I want to know if we've got extra money coming in, or a little less. I do the budgeting, and I'm better at organizing our finances, so I need to know about every little bit. [ NinjaNeer's advice column | Ask NinjaNeer A Question ]
