Hiw can I get my stubborn & cheap husband to listen to me?

Happy Holidays to everyone first of all. As some of you know, I have numerous issues with my cheap & controlling husband.

We recently had a serious issue with our plumbing. The kitchen sink was clogged & so was everything in both of our bathrooms.

He’s insane. He didn’t do anything for WEEKS! He refused to hire a plumber until recently.

He said he’d fix things but he put things off for a long time! He only called the plumber as the dirty dishes were stacking up. And we obviously needed to use the toilet. He’s so crazy that he expected me to use the public toilets instead of calling a plumber right away! Ugh!

It wasn’t an issue for him as he could use the toilet at work!

It’s disgusting how cheap he is! He only paid the plumber to fix the sink & his bathroom & my toilet.

The sink & the shower in MY bathroom is still clogged. I had to pester him to death to try to fix everything yesterday. He told me to stop nagging him.

Things still aren’t working, I’ve had a clogged sink & shower for months! Things get clogged often in my bathroom. This has been an issue for years! Each time he takes forever to fix it or hire a plumber!

He told me to just use his shower! He kerps complaining that we have no money, but everytime I go to the bank, we usually have at least $20000 or more in the checking account!!!!

Sometimes $50000, so wth? I understand the hat he owes the IRS a lot, but this is a necessity!!!!

How can I get him to listen to reason & stop being so cheap? Surprisingly he spent money for a smog check for my car recently.

He doesn’t see this as being a necessity or an emergency situation though.

I’m afraid that I’ll need to use $300 plus some of the small weekly allowance he gives me each week to hire a plumber myself & NOT tell him about. I can’t rely on a credit card as everything is maxed out & I don’t want him to find put about things anyways.

Draino isn’t working btw. Why is he like this? What can I do?
