We recently bought a house, and have a combined income of 100K. Yet my wife still spends as though we have no mortgage. How can i talk to her about a budget without getting in a fight. As i would rather invest in the home than non essential items that she buys.
I just want her to see that we can save as we can pay the bills but little goes into savings. I would much rather us spend the money reinvesting in the house, new windows, and paint. It's just hard to keep her attention when discussing a budget.
