Boyfriend Spending Problem ?

[jves1194]

My boyfriend have a job but everytime he gets paid most of the money he either spend it on beer when he go out with his friends or buy stupid things like bb guns. i just found out he spent $300+ on something again that i know for sure not important. He told me he's saving money for our baby but then again by the time he gets paid again he dont have no money at all so what should I do? Talk to him bout how he should spend his money? I work too but I mean I want him to save his money and dont spend it on anything stupid now since we're having our first baby now.

Have him start buying things for the baby. Stock up on diapers, baby wipes, formula, 3 bottles of infant Tylenol, etc. For diapers have hime buy: 2 packs-newborn, 15 packs of size 1, 15 packs size 2. Tons of baby wipes, formula. Keep the receipts, but as long a the diaper pack is unopened u will be able to return them if U have extra. But a baby goes through about 10-15 diapers a day. It adds up quickly. Diaper packs are $30-50 each. I had a girlfriend do that she had enough diapers for the 1st yr. maybe if he sees how much it costs to have a baby he'll change his ways.

I mine as well.just written this post! Lol. My bf does the same damn thing. It gets so frustrating. Hes the one working. I learned to just let him learn on his own. He fell in a money hole a few times all because he buys ps4 games n movies n beer.
