Man Refuses to Fund Wife’s Hobbies: Fair or Stingy?

It’s a tale as old as time: a couple struggles to find balance in their relationship when it comes to finances. In this case, a husband finds himself at odds with his wife after she inherits a large sum of money. While the inheritance allows her to become a stay-at-home mom, the husband still works to support the family. But when it comes to funding her hobbies, he draws the line. Is he being reasonable, or is he just being stingy? Let’s dive into their story.

So, the husband works full-time while his wife stays at home with their daughter, thanks to her inheritance.
