Nurse saves $8k for home repairs, but husband buys $6k golf clubs 🏠⛳️

A nurse worked extra hours for 6 months to save $8,000 for house repairs. Her unemployed husband wanted to buy expensive golf clubs and asked for a loan. When she refused, he took the money from her account and purchased the clubs behind her back. The nurse demanded he return the clubs or pay her back, but her husband begged to go on a golfing trip with his wealthy friends instead. The argument escalated, and the nurse is now overwhelmed with comments suggesting she return the clubs herself. However, she has never seen them and suspects her husband's brother's house. The conflict continues, with the husband accusing the nurse of being abusive and controlling. Read on for the reactions to this situation.
