Dear Annie gives advice to a husband worried about his wife's spending habits.
I’ve been married for 33 years. My wife has children and grandchildren from a different marriage. She has a wonderful job and makes great money. I am now retired. I have a nice little nest egg from my pension.
Since January of 2020, she has made $69,000 in bonus money. She says she has $15,000 left in her other bank that she uses. Her only credit card that I have seen, and she has more than one, is back up to $10,000. Added up since last January, she has given away $54,000, mostly to her daughter.
