"...even if the bonus is something you have worked your socks off for..."

For those, you would have to work off more than your socks!

[leapfrog0202]

I don’t know what to say to this. *smh*

Every day I feel more and more out of touch with this world and I’m not that old.

A bonus. How sweet.

In the 50's the wife controlled pretty much the whole paycheck.

You come fallen a long way, baby!

Years ago husbands and wives worked equally on farms.

Then husbands went to work in the town and brought home cash.

Everything changed.

Her husband rewards her ability to do well and keep house.

Lovely. My husband does it a bit differently, but any man who appreciates a woman’s place in the home is to be commended. Her, too.

Yay, traditional roles.

Just tell the wife to do her chores or you will withhold sex, all married men know that wives can’t go more than a day or two before they are begging for it.

Placating the egos of these women who are lost without Oprah to justify their lives.

"My husband pays me a wife bonus, and I'm proud of it — it’s what feminists have urged for years"

I thought legally everything was half and half. Giving the wife a bonus implies that the husband is the one who controls the money and doles it out to the "little lady".

Words to the wise....don’t marry this type of woman.

[ThomasThomas]

Can we assume from her comments that she is pro traditional marriage? We should thank her for her support!

More power to this woman. I get my shoes on clearance for around $7.00. And I’m picky about fashion, just can’t afford Chanel.

A monetary bonus for being a stay at home mom - LOLOLOL! A well adjusted happy child is the wanted outcome, not a pair of Louboutins.

How about the signing bonuses for them?

[sockmonkey]

I knew a stay at home Mom whose husband gave her $1500 a month just to spend on herself. That was almost 20 years ago, and I thought it was pretty generous.

Advice to young marrieds: Keep the wife happy or she’ll make your life a living h*ll.

[MNDude]

What if she already has access to you bank account?

[Lizavetta]

This year, as for almost all of the five years we’ve been married, I’m the grateful recipient of a “wife bonus” – and proud of it.

Whatever, sweetie. As long as you don't mind being treated like an employee at the whim of your boss.

Sorry, but this is depressing.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Honestly I have to ask what is wrong with this.

The wife has incentive to keep her husband's career and home life on track and she gets money to freely indulge her whims.

The husband is acknowledging the value of his wife's work.

Believe me I have seen many a career derailed by a spouse.

couple of tings came to mind.

It’s not the initial cost, it’s the upkeep.
