Do blk folks split rent/mortgages on average?

[#BOTHSIDES]

I be watching those home tours on IG

When I see non blk couples or just roommates most of them split rent

But most blk households either have one person paying for the rent/mortgage or they’re living single which means they’re paying for the whole thing

Idk of any of my family members splitting rent/mortgages with their partners.

Are we hustling backwards? Or I’m tripping

Are we hustling backwards

Yes.

A vast majority of my black family members are splitting bills. Unless the man is making $150k minimum, taking care of a family on one income is a stretch.

Rent/mortgage. U think most are splitting?

We had this 50/50 convo for the last 10-15 years… but I’m seeing other folks actually practicing it

Yeah most my family are definitely splitting bills. It don't have to be just rent/mortgage either. Whatever bills they pay helps, could be utilities, food, etc.

Idk who told black women that women of other races don’t help pay household bills. Black couples don’t work together, it’s usually two kingdoms under one roof. Also, black men have been manipulated into thinking that if we don’t pay all of the bills, we aren’t real men. They all tell this lie that the man is supposed to pay all of the bills and she’ll keep her money for the family savings . When she leaves your ass, I guarantee she won’t take half of that money and hand it to you.

Black men are the biggest tricks around and no one talks about it. Ask your rank and file average white boy what he got his wife for Christmas and he’ll say something simple like a robe or something small pertaining to a hobby that she has. Black men will spend their absolute last trying to make a bytch happy, buying YSL and Gucci for the broad.

Chat gpt says there’s no race-specific data, but most couples (70%), Black included, split rent based on income. Equal if similar, proportional if not. This is based on a LendingTree survey

Split the bills. Especially if the house is also in her name.

The overwhelming majority of all Americans split the bills outside of maybe 1st gen Arab Muslims.

If you're living with a spouse, you're splitting the bill

Why would the house be in her name and not yours?
