Hi All,
Just a really quick post as I am running late, but I thought it might be helpful to some to share this information:
Hubby is beginning to understand that money runs out, the way that he has realised is that he gets his income paid into HIS account and he can only spend what's in there.
On Sunday morning, he filled the car up with petrol, and we spoke about what we were doing, and he said he couldn't afford 'XYZ' as he only has £18 in the bank!
Yippppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
We have been together 20 years, and always had a joint account. If only I had realised this sooner!
Good luck, I hope it will enlighten some of you
GW
