It depends on each persons personality. Some women are prudent, some women spend a lot. Some men are prudent, some men spend a lot also.

This is very hard to answer, but I would think it should be the females, we tend to want a lot of things, most of which we don't need, especially when something is in vogue n we wanna av it cos everyone one has it, n later when we use it we just put it aside n start chasing something else in vogue.

@correctbabe,

I will usemyself as example, its the guy, my guy spend alot he does not think about next minute.

Imagine, he does not matter which ATM machine he is withdrawing from, He uses Zenith Bank, he can withdraw from GTB or other bank without checking if there is Zenith around! Imagine the 100 naira deduction from GTB etc at any withdrawal.

he can buy wine of 2,000 for 5k, buy energy deink of 150 for 500 naira.

me as a lady, I reason well before i spend because, I work for this money.

i dont by make up that are not needed, dresses that r too expensive, I price wel well , my guy does nt price, inshort he waste money, on what we dnt need most time.

I believe guys waste money more than women.

some women waste the money most especially, if its not their money, if a guy takes them out, they will buy and buy unnecessary things, but when it become their money , they think before spending, na poverty babes they do this oh, they call them EBINA.

I think its women. Speaking from my own experience. The amount of rubbish I have in my room, shame will not even allow me say I regret buying it. I also think women are more likely to spend money out of spite.

Women.
Quite obvious really and anyone who disagrees is nothing short of deluded as there's statistical data to prove this fact.

Men. Women can rock a top of 3500 and make it look like it's CHANEL. Men can't.

Lets not fool ourselves.
Whatever a man wants, a chic probably does as well.. pending her basic needs are already catered to.. hair, shoes, make up, you already know...

Ezinwa said...

Having been into counsellling of young people and couples, I can say that though individual differences matter, each sex has its way of spending. Men spend BIg on single items and feeding while women spend much in many items especially fashion including beauty products. But we need a scientific measurement to determine who spends more in different contexts.

Women spend more money and d more men give them money they never stop asking! Such irritants!

women are the real spender of money cos if you look at it from this angle, women love to get the latest trend of fashion no mater how expensive they are as long as they have the money, they will want to get it by all means.

I totally agree with anonymous oct 27, 2012 3.01pm . I had a boyfriend that would spend a lot, everything he had had to be designers. When I saw the cost of his wristwatches and shoes I wanted to faint. Even my parents don,t spend half as much on those items. It differs though but in my opinion guys spend a lot

Aby said...

this is a question that can not get a definate and sincere answer. But to be realistic, it depends on the personality

Anonymous said...

Hehehehe, iam guilty of this too, now what I do is to give away clothes & shoes I have not used within 1year or so; if its kitchen appliances I wrap it in addition to other things and present as gift during weddings or give to missions. It makes me feel better when I get rid of the excess

And women don't buy the gadgets u just mentioned abi. Well for me linda its the women cos for sure once a woman has money at hand, they can buy more of the things they need than the ones they don't need,am a woman and I can say we spend more on things we would later regret.

Madam Debby, its either you try your possible or you try your best. "Possible best" is tautology

Anonymous said...

I think it all depends on your personality and not the gender. A man can buy an item worth more than 150k of human hair. It all boils down to how well can u save money?

shakes said...

everybody is just saying ladies spend more well in my own opinion i will say it depends talking from my point of view....yes we ladies love to buy trendy stuffs just to look good but wen it comes to guys spending... they spend large mostly weekends on alcohol and enjoyments

one weekend spending of a guy can b enuf for a ladies shopping in three weeks..

Lie!!! It's men they spend on their mother, GF(s)/wife(s)/kids and of course include those who are sugar daddies. The kind of money Sugar daddies spend on their GFs(e.g. Chika ike, current MBGN) will wonder if they do such for their wives **sumbody pikin**

It depends. Like my husband can buy two pairs of shoes for $1000 or a suit for $1000 but i will go shopping with that and come back home with 10 shopping bags. Well except if i am buying a luxury bag. I go shopping every other week and shop in bits online every week and get a bunch of stuffs with only $200 but my husband only shops like once in six months but spends big at once on either electronics, a new car, shoes, wrist watch or suits. so at the end of the day everything adds up.

*If you have a man and a lady who earn the same salaries, the lady will have more shoes/ jewelry and cloth and still get money from the man and still have less in her bank account. Hope that answers your question.

Comment will only make sense if you state your gender then the judge can decide who wastes the most money....XXL More said so
