    Oh I wish!!

    If I remember correctly Ricardo does not show faster payments until the next day! Bless bet you he doesn't deduct it from the total until next day either so our money sits in HIS account making HIM interest!

    I think getting your OH to stick it all in a bag and handing it all to you to sort out once a week is probably your safest option, very frustrating that they can't be trusted to do anything but less stress for you in the long run!

    Are all men rubbish with money? Or is it just ours? My dh doesn't stress over money AT ALL, I do it for both of us!
    Proud to be dealing with my debts,

  • My OH earns a really decent wage and never seems to be short of anything (it's OK I've seen his bank statements and credit card statements). He knows I'm up to my tonsils in debt and even though I'm adamant it's my problem (left over from ex hubby) and I won't accept money from him he still treats me to things he know I can't afford. He's never ever had money problems so doesn't know what we all have to go through. I don't think he appreciates how worrying it is trying to make the money last all month :(

    I am good Beaters!! Been an ok day, we have a new colleague and I knew I had met him before - he couldn't remember meeting me, today I remembered how I knew him, he was married to a girl I went to college with, guess thats one I will be keeping to myself!!

    Money wise - NSD (except for Amazon parcels but I don't include that)
    Dietwise - good! No chocy (yet)
    DHfinancewise - did a bit last night and tonight is night off for me! So still no closer to working out payment scheme for his debitors, although I think it will be easier than household as he has weekly cash flow!

    Tonight is TV night - soaps/holby city/grey's antomy and finally the oh so silly desperate housewives! I love Tuesdays.

    I should wash the kitchen floor - it is disgusting!

    I should be a millionaire - its in my blood!

    DTBDF - how do you bear your DH having money and you not - that would kill me. At least Mr RMC and I are on the bones of our a**es together!
