Looking for advice: Spouse wants to pay bonus out of his own pocket

[MRBXXXFVVS1]

Thank you for all the answers.

As an update. The husband came finally to his senses and dropped that idea. Even without me prodding any further. He did manage to negotiate a permanent yearly pay-raise for each team member of around that amount.

One person quit in the meantime.

So my spouse has had a long week or two and I will try to cheer him up and make his home life as nice as possible.

I wish everyone the best as well. Stay healthy!

That's amazing! A pay raise is far better than a bonus, it's the gift that keeps on giving! Glad everything worked out for the best!
