'London: Men might think they hold the purse strings but it is actually women who control the family finances and make the biggest decisions on spending, according to a new UK study.

Nine out of ten middle-aged women in Britain take control of paying bills, financial planning and buying goods for their household, the study found.

Dubbed the family CEO, these women believe the term housewife is old-fashioned and no longer relevant to them. Instead, they say their wide range of responsibilities mean their role is more akin to the boss of a company, the 'Daily Mail' reported.'
