Hi.. any SAHM? wondering how u all can cope financially? Hope u all can answer my qns. 1) How much is the whole family expenses like each mth? 2) How much does ur spouse earns? 3) Got give u pocket money since u not working? 4) Do u still give ur parents allowance? thank u.

I have been SAHM for 1 year... This is based on my last year observation 1) School fees $1300, standard bills (PUB, internet, S&CC, HP bills) $400. Hubby insurance (?)and groceries (maybe $500) and eat out $300-$400. Guess it is roughly like this... 2) Sales so it varies. So far at least $5k. 3) No he didnt give me as my allowance came from rental for the moment... If anything not enough i will let him know. 4) Once in a while then give my grandmother cos she knows I not working already...
