Yes, I absolutely think this is fair. If he is spending $100/month on Cigarettes, you get $100/month to do with what *you* want, too. Not that you need to actually spend this money... putting it away for something nice for you, or for a rainy day is fine too, but it should be in the budget and it should be YOURS.

It just seems like it is so much to waste for something that is only gonna hurt and cost you more in the long run.

Well, yes. I hope your husband quits soon, too. I always like this site... I used this a lot when I quit. I kept telling myself I could get to the next milestone, and the next, and the next...

access to money is not the same as having a set amount of money that is yours. I give the same advice to you - your husband gets blow-money, you should too. Set it aside in a 'piggy-bank' account, and do something nice for YOU someday -- whether that nice thing is a vacation, a swanky new outfit, or a cushier retirement is up to you, but you need your 'blow money' too even if you are the frugal one.
