Hi!
Would you correct my English, please?
"Which is?"
My American friend said that he managed the family budget. He has a wife and no children.
He also said that women were careless about money and often bought on impulse. “Men have to keep the purse strings.”
This was surprising to me because the situation is opposite in Japan.
So I asked many friends that who controller of the purse strings was.
Almost all the people I asked said that women bear the bag. Only one exceptional case was her husband was a banker.
One married woman said, “If I let him have much money, he goes to drink and spends all the money!”
Two married man said, “I don’t want to go to banks. It’s a pain.”
I told them about the American friend, and then most of the women said, “No kidding! No way!”
Is my American friend an exceptional case in America too?
Which is sensible in your country?
Thank you!
