Why do you need so much?

This conversation happened during our car journey to see bb at mil’s place.

Mommy: Do you think I should stay home and be a SAHM if we have a second kid?
Daddy: No, I never thought of that.
Mommy: Do you think ma (mil) can cope? Don’t you think she needs some time off and relax? (trying to con him into accepting my idea)
Daddy: Silent
Mommy: I am very low maintenance one. You only need to give me $xxxx per month, then I can survive one.
Daddy: What? Why you need so much every month? Last time pa (pil) only gave ma $xxxx much.
Mommy: Wah, tai lou, last time and now where got same?
Daddy: What do u need to spend on, everything regarding house whole is paid off what?
Mommy: (Whao! Started calculating everything and I can smell the anger)
Well, let’s don’t discuss about this, it’s too early to have this conversation. *sigh in my heart*

End…. men and their money… sigh!
