For those who are married or in relationships, does your lady support your financial vision?

I’m not married but my current girl’s only response to what I have to say is:
:unimpressed:that’s great, I support you baby, etc” but I feel like she don’t really feel where I’m coming from.

I got a bro at work who got 8 rentals, he brought in 50k from those properties last year. And his wife helps manage the admin side, collecting rent etc. Basically being a partner & not just along for the ride!

With this current one sometimes she’ll tell me I “worry too much about money” when I’ll bring up deals im thinking of. I just been down bad and I’m not tryna go back. Idk if I’m trippen or not:francis:

You might be a lot more ambitious than she is. From what I’ve seen with my own parents, I definitely don’t want to marry someone who doesn’t have goals of their own that they want to hit. When one of you wants to grow and the other just wants to sit at home and watch TV, you just end up stagnating b/c of all the resistance :francis:

I feel what the OP and you are talking about. A lot of women are that way, though, unfortunately.

They like to complain about their jobs, for example, but don't want to do what it takes to get another one..or even look into it.

Pretty girls especially expect the world to come to them

Do you guys share the same vision? Ambition ? How many times have you switched Ideas?
Have yall talked about what your real roles in a relationship are.

also about the bolded. I know many guys who were dirt poor and changed their tax bracket but one thing i've noticed about a good number is THEY ARE SOOO ANNOYING TALKING ABOUT NOT GOING BACK. You have to ask yourself..how many times do you REALLY bring this topic up.

Truth be told, not often. When it comes up with her, she’s the one who brings it up. Saying she wants to know what I’m doing. So I oblige:yeshrug:

Then when I tell her, she hits me with those responses:ld:

Have you actually given her any roles to take on to assist you in your journey?? Or are you just constantly talking about your goals?
Maybe I should have rephrased the OP. To ask moreso in general terms.

I’m 25 and my current ol lady will be 21 in a week

My bro who I’m referencing, who has the 8 rentals and whose wife’s is on board is 28 and 27, respectively. I could chalk up her behavior to age but I’m asking in general. Young ppl will be old eventually and I’m thinking out loud. As brehs get older and find their mate:ld:

Stop comparing someone else’s relationship to your own. Maybe your girl doesn’t want to be an admin in YOUR businesses. While it’s ideal, it’s not a sign of her NOT being supportive, IMO.

With that said she’s young and you two may not be on the same page financially. Have you talked with her about what you would desire her role to be? It’s better you know early if she wants to be involved or not.

Breh breh, I'm 24 atm and when I was 21, many girls (not all) I encountered were really not about that life as it concerns business and side income. To keep it a brick, since most of them were just turning 21. It was all about school work and going to the club. Plain and simple. At that age life is still on "easy" mode if they're attractive, plus, they haven't really entered the real word.

Best thing to do is to keep hustling on your vision and linking with people 2 steps ahead of you.

Just keep grinding breh. The key difference is that breh's woman is his WIFE. Long-term you'll definitely want a partner who is supportive and yall share each others vision. But if she 21 she probably doesnt know enough about the real world to really contribute much yet. Just stay focused and whoever you cuff longterm will share in the things that are important to you. Having a partner with ambition is a real blessing

:mjlol:
Breh thinks a 21 year old female is thinking about building an empire
It’s the principle of the whole situation. Eventually young women will grow into older women.

To be fair I’ve noticed some my age, and some older, who think the same as my current girl. It just made me think.

I do feel you on the age thing. Ideally I’d be with someone around my age, who has a similar mindset as me. She’s just the one I’m currently with. That’s an entirely different conversation for another sub forum though:dame:
