My Significant Other wants to buy a hot tub/spa. I think it is a Frivolous Purchase. I need reasons to say NO.
Hot Tub Estimated cost: $5,000 with “installation”.
He does not understand that there will be additional costs, maintenance and it is in my opinion a stupid idea. Reasons:
1. Electrical Panal from the 1950′s. The lights dim NOW when I plug in an electric heater
2. We need a new Furnace
3. We need to reside the house (Wood siding from 1870′s)
4. I just spent $5,000 on a European Cruise he wanted.
He has no financial restraint and often overdraws the checking account then dips into his limited savings. I don’t want him to go broke yet he’s put me in charge of the finances. If he buys this I will hand him all the bills but I know he will just spend all of his money until its gone. Yet if I say no, he gets mad at me. What other reasons can I give him?
you need to sit down and talk to him about his spending habits and if it doesnt change it will just get worse and get you into debt and cause arrguments and you`ll end up apart because neither of you will be happy if you dont nip this in the butt now it wont ever stop dont worry about making him mad or not its to your well being as well as his, if he wants the tub make him buy it with his own money and he has to do the up keep as well as up grade the electrical panal…. if this is something you might want just a little, than start saving only 50 bucks a week towards it and you`ll have it in two years.
