1)Parents, 2)Some nieces and nephews, 3) Husbands, 4)Some siblings (the gouger ones who don't alienate themselves). 5) Desperate and starving neighbors, 6)Very close friends, My wife's parents have passed away. I am actually her second priority, sometimes her first, otherwise she is her first priority.
My accessment of my wife would be:
1)Her parents, 2)Our son, 3)Our family's needs, 3)Her siblings (because she is the eldest). 4)My self (her husband), 5) Herself,(Since I'm the one working hard she would never question anything I would want over what she would want, that being said I try to be as equal and fair as possible). 6) Worthy relatives or friends who have done good things to her in the past. 7)-9), 10)Other expats. I'm lucky, my wife is practical, she doesn't need a new car nor is she interested in jewelry to show off with.
