I never understood why some women would rather do bad all by themselves instead of going 50% on bills.

shyt never made sense to me.:dwillhuh: Like if all yo bills add up to $3400, you'd save $1700/month if you just split it with a man. :patrice:Just think with what you could do with $1700. If you asked me, anybody under $150k should be splitting the bills.
This shyt does NOT come up in real life, breh...

:stopitslime:

IRL a Women is gonna try to work it out with a Nygga until the shyt don't work nomore .

And splitting bills 50 50 will not be the breaking point...

It would be shyt like "he lives to far away" or.."he's stuck in his ex"

Or "he's a momma's boy"...

I know because I work with mostly women and these are the reasons it don't be working out .

How often do the women in your life bring up the 50/50 conversation? They DON'T

All Internet engagement shyt

I'm a man who pays all my bills. I'm not looking to go 50/50 with a woman. I don't need a rommate

Nothing wrong with this, everyone had their own lane.

Logically speaking, anybody making under $150k should be splitting bills. Hell, I'd go as far as to say $200k. It makes sense because that's how you build wealth.

If you are making less that $150k and paying 100% you are losing out on good investments.

If you are a man in a 50/50 relationship you're broke and less than a man,

This is an emotional based response.

Logic is what wins in this world. A couple combining incomes always beats 1 income. You lose out on real estate, 401k, Roth Ira, stocks, and other high interest savings account.

There is zero logic in paying all the bills.

Nah my son stays, lil man hangs with the boys. His mama had to go though. I aint raising no soft ass mamas boy over here, especially considering my son isn't even 5 yet and is already over 4 feet tall. His ass gonna be like 6'8 or 6'9 at the rate he growing, gonna get his ass on the basketball court or that baseball diamond and see what he got. He also gonna box and learn how to fight just like his daddy too.

Facts thats what you supposed 2 do..... enjoy it while he's a shortie breh; every second counts :salute:

Most people are barely getting by and living paycheck to paycheck. The 50/50 argument is an online and hypothetic argument. All things being equal most reasonable people will rather share the bills with someone else.

This ain't really a thing to be complaining about especially if a chick has a child. It's better for her to go it alone then try to force some bullshyt relationship, it's way more respectable to go that route and much better for the kid.

These women dont exist for real. Its online pretend. Just like all the super alpha no tricking, no simping talk. Too many chicks out here going 100/0 with a nikka playing video games and emptying her gas tank for this to be real. They ain't tryna go 50/50 with a dude they arent attracted to.

This is the answer right here. I know a few women making $300K+ completely supporting a man that is unemployed or underemployed.

You could say the same of black men. Decades worth of propaganda has killed a lot of our brains on this topic. Marriage is a financial tool men and women used to improve their credit, double their income, and build savings. A lot of working to middle class white people understand this. A lot of black people in the south understand this. But for whatever reason the dominant sentiment you get on social media is that black women shouldn't marry until they're 40 and accomplished with a six figure job and three degrees. Meanwhile white women are getting nursing degrees, marrying accountants straight outta college, and winning the economic game lol.

And while white guys are finding the most tolerable 6-7/10 chick to marry and raise their kids, black men are impregnating multiple women and staying stagnant in every way (mentally, financially, job wise, etc). This is not sustainable. We can't just point at black women and say they're the losers. We're the losers too. Time has essentially run out...

Dudes really putting all the cooking and cleaning on the woman?
It's crazy if dudes are. Every relationship I've been in I did most of the cooking because I enjoyed cooking. It should be both the men and woman's responsibility to do everything to make the household run smoothly.

Marriage is not a priority among black people it's getting worse according to that graph. I will argue that we as a group need marriage more than any other group for the economic benefits, and its much easier to raise children with two parents.

Increase in education does increase the odds of being married, while I don't have data to support this, this group group of men and women probably participate in IR relationships and marriages at a much higher rate than their less educated counterpart.
