24. Lessons from Laura - Part 8

Posted on September 26th, 2011

This entry is going to talk about relinquishing the finances.

So ladies, if you are the ones balancing your household checkbook, controlling the budget, or even paying the bills, Laura recommends that you stop immediately by telling him that you would like to surrender that responsibility completely to him.

Here is why.

When your husband takes complete responsibility for the household finances 5 things will happen:

Increased generosity.
He will feel more of a connection with the money that is coming in and out. Making him able to either save more, or spend more. And when a man feels that he has a few dollars here and there in excess to spend on his wife to make her happy…he will.

There will be no mother-son dynamic.
He will not have to ask you if there is enough money in the account to buy this or do that, like a son would ask his mother. He will know how to provide for the family and how much can and should be spent on what.

You will be showing your trust in his capabilities to care for your family.
By relinquishing this responsibility you are showing him that your financial fate is completely in his hands. No one wants to end up poor or homeless, so he will feel a greater responsibility knowing that he is taking care of you from A to Z, a feeling that men are born to like to have by the way.

You will have perpetual dating.
Next time you are out for dinner, you won't even have to bother looking at the check or worrying if the account went into negative. He is the one managing your budget now, so just sit back and relax.

You will experience greater prosperity.
Believe it or not, you will find your household bank account increase in number. Men were built to think more analytically, while we are built to think more creatively.


Try this: Relinquish control of the finances. Make a spending plan for yourself and set a certain amount every week/month (whatever you decide on) in order to buy the things you want or are responsible for and leave the rest to him!
