This comment angers me. When I was married I was a stay at home Mom. Cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, paying the bills, raising the kids, laundry, etc. So, since I wasn't "making any money", I wasn't allowed to buy what I wanted or know what he was spending the money on? Totally unfair argument and smacks of "I'm more important than you."
One time my husband tried that **** statement on me. I offered to quit doing all I do around the house and he can hire someone to do all the chores and see how much it cost him.  He didn't earn enough money to hire a private cook, personal shopper, finance manager, nanny, laundress, etc.

I am like you, ZG. I don't have many clothes at all. I have 4 pairs of shoes. I don't even carry a purse but more of a small wallet type thing.
I am very, very low maintenance. I never want anything for Christmas or my birthday. It ticks the kids off. LOL

My wife had the option of staying home for a while when my daughter was born. I think for her sanity it was wiser for her to work. Being a stay at home mom/dad is way more than a full time job. I would rather work!!

Ssshhhh.....you let out my secret!! But at least nail polish doesn't cost $500.00 like a Coach purse. Or $100.0 like a pair of fancy shoes. And I kind of think I am underestimating those prices.

My wife bought an authentic Coach purse for $50. My wife can find a good deal anywhere.
