Maintenance costs?

[Crasherfromwayback]

$18.95 per doz Steinies most days (gotta look after ya bod and take on plenty of fluids).

$11.50 for a packet of Dunhill Red, as the other hand gets lonely.

Sorted.

I'm high maintenance. I spend 90% of my income on booze, boys and motorsport. The rest just gets wasted.

Most of the clothes I bought recently have been motorbike/sport related, and I get my hair cut every 5 weeks, to ensure I don't get helmet hair.

FYI - if you lived in Auckland you'd have to pay for that water...

Everybody on town water supply anywhere in New Zealand still pays for their water. They just pay for it as part of a general property rate, rather than on a volumetric basis.

Oh god - I am totally high maintenance. Funnily enough we were talking about this on the trip to Manfield over the weekend. My male friend was shocked!!!

$32 - fortnightly nails
$80 - monthly brazillian
$20 - monthly leg wax
$20 - monthly underarm wax
$8 - monthly eyebrow wax
$8 - monthy top lip wax
$180 - 6 weekly hair colour and cut

This is not counting shopping, facials and other things I do to feel 'pretty'!

Eeeeek, oh well, it's my money so I guess a girl will have it a girl will spend it ha

Sounds like a 20 litre tin of Nair would look after most of that

Ok Mr Smarty Pants you win

I don't know bout high maintenance ....just hairy by the sounds! Just joking hun!

Oh god I forgot all the creams, lotions, make up and smellies.......

Hey keeping a gorilla such as me hair free, wrinkle free and smelling good takes time, money and effort. I've got to make an effort to look good on the bike so people won't realise how badly I'm riding it

The question was how much does it take to make you look good, not make others look good to you

Oh...well then two doz Steinies and a real strong smoke!

I do my own hair (what there is of it) etc., and don't go to the dentist or doctor (unless I really need to, which is dumb, as I have medical insurance). I spend probably only a couple of hundred shekel-dollars on (non biking) clothes.
The vifferbabe, on the other hand, gets her hair trimmed every few weeks; that (plus product) costs $120-$250. Every other visit, she gets it coloured as well, which basically doubles the cost (if not more).
Clothes?
Well, one of her mantras is "I like shoes". She has tiny feet, and shoes don't last long. She has (at a guess) approximately 12 meelleeons of them. She has to look presentable and business-like for work, so she has some designer stuff that cost $1k/item (on sale!).
I try to not know what she spends; she earns nearly twice what I do, and I don't care if it makes her feel good.

I'm trying to decide if I should fork out to get my hair done, about $220, or if it should be considered one of those costs that come out of the "joint budget".
I pay for all my other products and clothes myself so don't really see why I should feel guilty paying for my hair to be done once every six month out of our joint account... especially when I cut hubby's hair for him. Especially when I know a lot of women who spend twice that on a pair of shoes or a jacket out of their "joint income".
hmmmm, I think it's more of a personal guilt thing as I'm sure he doesn't mind if I spend $500 odd on my hair a year.

Oh, a joint budget eh?! Oh well, im not one to judge, but may I remind you that "God Cares"....

Hahahaha, sadly it really is that simple.

Just do it. Let's face it he won't notice your hair and when he realises there is a lock of money in the account just blame him for spending too much
