Joint bank accounts

[Wesley Pipes quotes]

We had separate bank accounts before getting married.

What are we missing out on by not combining bank accounts?

Its easier to do it the way we are doing.

My wife and I have joint bank accounts and separate accounts, but we both have access to each others individual accounts.

I don't even think twice about it.

Must suck to be so stupid to marry a woman you don't trust.

Why wouldn't you have a joint account for bills?

A portion of both paychecks for bills.

A portion for savings.

But both should have access to money.

Why would you marry someone who is financially irresponsible? That's the real question.

YEA cuz people dont change over time.....

 

[Wesley Pipes quotes]

YEA cuz people dont change over time.....

Someone once asked me on this board "what makes me a better judge of character". I simply responded "because I am a better person"

This thread doesn't disprove that.

That's your response.

"People change"

YEA cuz people dont change over time.....

People do change but, Im not living my life in fear that someone is going to change for the worse.

be real with yourself. most people are bad but more women than men are bad with money.
theres a reason womens stores out number mens.

cmon bruh. More clothing stores aint really saying much. Women may shop more when it comes to clothes, but women clothes usually cheaper than mens. I'm willing to bet dudes spend way more in general. Women may go to a $100 massage/spa parlor or splurge on some $200 shoes or purse, but women usually don't give two shyts about electronics like dudes. nikkas droppin 2 grand on a 60" 3D plasma plus the xbox or ps3 and every new game that drops every other month, plus spending twice as much on alcohol than women when they go out (especially simps ) chicks might want a real nice dress or purse, but nikkas want the flyest whip and will go into debt for 5series or a benz. Let's not even get on the obsession with sports like NFL from tickets to gear.

It really can sway either way. Men are equally as big as consumers.

Like I said these nggas thought process on women is completely outdated. Now wonder these threads exist.

What's funny is duke came at me crazy asking if I ever spent time with a lady. Meanwhile this neanderthal is spouting Pure FDA approved bullshh.

you sound ridiculous and you have only an opinion to support your bs theory...

people claim women like shopping more than men...but that does not mean that we are not good with our money?

the only thing more women stores could possibly prove is that women like to shop....

you want numbers and studies and facts for things i just told you?

A FINRA Foundation Study found that, on average, we gals pay a half a point higher interest rate on our cards than the guys do. And that's after factoring in things like income level, education -- even financial literacy.

And there's more discouraging news. Women were:
5 percentage points more likely to carry a credit card balance.
4 percentage points more likely to make only the minimum payment.
6 points more likely to be charged a late fee.
Now the good news: among financially literate men and women these last three stats disappeared. Men and women were equal.

like i said both are bad women are worse

everyone who says they're a good judge of character is a good judge of character until they're not.

its just like everyone that falls in love has a love that's different than everyone else's love and will last forever until it doesn't.

its easy to spot the bad character traits people aren't able to hide and avoid those people and take that as you being a good judge of character but the honest truth is no human being knows fully what's going on in the mind of another. life doesn't care about your arrogance with it comes to your self assessment of your ability to judge character.

it would have been better to say i love my wife and i trust her and if shyt happens i'm willing to accept that than imply that it probably will never happen because you judge character better than others.

 

[CrimsonTider]

I bet you had separate houses as well so why live together then? the point of getting married is to become one...it shows lack of trust imo...and there is nothing wrong with keeping your personal accounts if that is what you choose to do but why not get a joint account as well?

whatever works for you two though and as long as you are happy

Lack of trust concerning?

We both fund a joint savings and we both pay our share of the bills?

Why would the other cash need to be combined? She earned that money she can do whatever the hell she wants to do with it.

I dont need to See her money.

Naw I'd rather say I am better than you because I followed the plan of success that was laid out before me by my grandparents, parents and brothers. This knowledge in picking the right woman and what to look for doesn't come out of nowhere. It isn't fate, chance or luck. It's hard work making something that look so ugly in this world(relationships) and make it look this easy.

You keep doing you playboy. I hope you continue to fail.

you can say anything doesn't make it real. the only being that can speak shyt into existence is God. i could be wrong you could be God himself come to bless the Coli with your infinite wisdom. otherwise you're just a human being that took a chance on someone just like the rest of us. people like you though your arrogance only makes it more humorous when the shyt blows up in your face.
