I was in a meeting with my partner and he mentioned that he wanted to rush to the bank to make an atm withdrawal. I asked why? He said he usually give his wife some amount of funds every month. I was astonished and then the other colleague of ours said he does not give the wife any thing that it's much better like that.

I asked both of them the reason for their decision and they explained: the first guy who gives his wife $650 per month said that he does it so that the wife can do a few things herself and not always be a liability since she has no job . The second guy said that all women are liabilities that he does not give for the following reasons:

- She will be jobless and have no positive vision because she will be expecting her monthly pension without retirement.

- She would not understand the value of money and will spend excessively.

- Her love for him might re-wire into money and she might be with him just for money.

- she will be prone to infidelity. An idle mind with money is the devil's factory..

He mentioned alot of reasons and I could not help but reason with him.

So now I ask Nairalanders. ... What do you think?

Is it right for a man to allocate an amount for his partner monthly? Or weekly?

Discuss...

How many marks for this question?

Do not put wives and girlfriends in the same sentence.

For a wife it's absolutely right but for a girlfriend it can't be monthly, only when it's relevant. Although some unmarried relationship could be an exception if it's definitive and likely to lead to marriage.

Why would a man say all those flimsy stuff about giving their wives money. The reasons they gave are negligible and a subterfuge to abandon their responsibility. Absolute nonsense.

Y nt? if u r capable, y nt? bt if u aint capable, at least let her realise ur willingness and show some love some many other ways.
#my take #

If I get money ,I go give..na so rich man go do..

lol.. na normal na.. women for you

Statistics show that Wives are better Home/Financial Managers than the Husbands.....
There's nothing wrong in giving my wife monthly allowances (cos I've always done that) because I noticed she fixes most things in the house even without my notice.... like replacing finished home utilities and food procurements...
So my giving her money monthly is still for a backup and an act most men are supposed to imbibe











But giving monthly allowances to ur girlfriend... hmmmm..... if the purpose of ur friendship is not defined;..... My guy Na office things for ur head oooooo

first of all, you should know the difference between a wife and a girlfriend...

what exactly is the money meant for? Is it for the up keep of the home or for the wife's personal needs.
If he doesn't give his wife up keep money then how will they feed?

If it is up keep of the house then he just have to give but if its for her personal needs then it all depend on if she is working or not.

Yes men should give wives and girlfriends monthly allowance.

It depends, for your wife it's not a big deal if you do
