She Thinks Her Husband Spends Too Much On Bourbon

Meredith writes my husband and I started following your baby steps this year now that we are budgeting it's clear that a lot of our money is going towards my husband's alcohol purchases he enjoys collecting Bourbon and spends 75 bucks a week on his hobby okay you're not following the baby steps we really need that money to get out of debt I'm embarrassed and frustrated that he is spending our hard-earned money on this unnecessarily he's defensive and says he doesn't spend money on anything else so I shouldn't complain I don't know how to get through to him okay um well when you are working your get out of debt plan you put your hobbies on hold that might include your $75 a week for nails and facials and hair care and eating out and him buying a bottle of bourbon but um I have a bourbon collection um I can afford it though and I'm not in debt and um do you have a collection or do you have a museum well um yeah and the um this is not about me John but
