The question you should ask yourself is – “Am I willing to spend $38,000 to teach my wife to listen to me next time?”
Or, is this the time to let her know that bad financial decisions are not an acceptable part of your marriage, regarless of any crying, whining, pouting, or other kind of pressure. And that crying whining, pouting, and pressuring isn’t the way to get what she wants.
The other guy’s point about “if she makes the money, then make her buy the condo” is also valid. Maybe tell her when she can put her own $38K down-payment on the place, you’ll buy it.
