Brilio.net - The economy in a household must be managed well by both parties, both husband and wife. Given that the process of collecting rupiah is not easy, then managing whatever they have wisely is the right choice.
Like most people, they will manage their finances by calculating all forms of expenses for a month. Each item is also budgeted according to the budget they have so that it is sufficient.
In managing household needs, husbands generally trust their wives. Husbands usually give their wives weekly or monthly money to spend.
Unfortunately, not all husbands simply trust their wives. Not a few of them actually choose to give shopping allowances.
Like the man whose story went viral on social media. In an upload on the Instagram account @banjarmasinbanget, a moment was recorded showing a husband monitoring his wife shopping.

The man carefully followed his wife's steps in the supermarket. He made sure that every item he put into the shopping cart did not exceed the budget he had set, which was Rp150 thousand.
" Wife's shopping must be monitored, don't spend more than 150 thousand, so that your husband doesn't go bankrupt, " he wrote in the caption on the video.
In the video, the wife is seen trying hard to choose the items that are really needed. While her husband keeps an eye on her so that she does not take items that he considers too expensive.

It turns out there is a reason why her husband has to monitor his wife while shopping. He admitted that he was afraid of going bankrupt if household expenses were not monitored properly.
" So my husband doesn't go bankrupt ," she explained.
At the end of the video, the man shows his wife's shopping receipt. He feels relieved because the shopping does not exceed the amount he had set from the beginning.
" Thank God, 145 thousand ," he said.

Since the video was uploaded, negative comments have flooded the comment section. Many netizens have criticized the husband's actions as excessive and inappropriate control. Considering that the needs purchased are for the benefit of the family, not personal.
" Even though it was bought for daily needs, the husband was really bad ," said @joedikah.
" Even though the wife's shopping is for the husband to eat, right? " said @yessie_oktavianti.
" He went bankrupt because of his own actions, and his wife made him think half to death ," wrote @enggariprtw__.
" How scary!!! That's for buying basic necessities even though it's for the same house. That's crazy for men. If you don't have money, you don't have to get married... it makes people difficult ," said @twizzty88.
