Pretoria - A woman who claims she had to give up her car and job in order to become the good housewife her now estranged common-law husband wanted, is claiming R63 100 a month in maintenance from him.

The 30-year-old from Midrand said during their union of about two years she worked her fingers to the bone in the house, during which time he gave her an allowance. She thus became accustomed to a certain way of living. She turned to the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria, where she claimed spousal maintenance of R63100 pending their divorce.

Included in the list of her monthly expenditure, handed to court to motivate for the maintenance, was a demanded for R10 000 a month for her hair and nails and R2500 a month for food. She also wanted him to return the Jeep Wrangler bearing his name as the personal number plate.

The woman, who cannot be named as divorce proceedings are pending, said her self-employed husband gave her the vehicle for her personal use. She said her husband owned seven other luxury cars, including a Jeep SRT8, Mercedes Vito and Audi A3.

10k for nails. Does she scratch him that bad?
 
R10 000 a month for her hair and nails


She thus became accustomed to a certain way of living.

Yeah well that's a thing called life isn't fair.

Next time someone with a good salary gets retrenched they can just approach the labour court and demand to be reinstated because you have become accustomed to a certain way of living.

Get out of the hair salon and get a job you greedy cow.
 
Maybe if she did this for 20 years I would be on her side, but two years! No ways
 
R10 000 for hair and nails. R2 500 for food? She clearly does not shop at Woolies, but seems to use top of the range stylists. :crylaugh:
