Married People: Do You Have Your Own Bank Account?

[Poh SIti Dawn]

I'm always peeping game, an older friend (who is married and has gwap) put me onto a little bit of game and told me that if I were to ever to get married then I should have my own bank account, my wife should have her own and then perhaps we should share a savings account. I've seen certain married couples that share accounts, to say the least: it sucks. Spoke to a girl about it and she said that it's stupid of me to think like that.

what do y'all think? Do you share banks accounts? Have any stories of nikkas being miserable because him and his wife share accounts?

 

[-G$-]

we have both, joint and individual accounts.

Only a trick minded individual would share an account with a woman. You'll have some retard come in here talking about "ohh thats normal, you shouldn't be with her if you don't trust her" or some dumb ass sensitive shyt. We can share a hot plate, we can share a couch, we can't share funds. No go

i have totally separate accounts from my wife. only way she can access it is if i die. it has never been a problem. and i've been married for 10 years...

 

[Poh SIti Dawn]

Damn, I need to post this on a white forum, keep forgetting most nikkas don't play when it comes to money.

Seperate accounts to begin with... see how it goes from there as the relationship evolves...just remember love blossoms but so do post marital bills

 

[Poh SIti Dawn]

Yep, she was telling me how back in the day if she knew shyt was going to go bad she'd hit the bank and withdraw all the cash

I understand why anyone would want to maintain individual accounts but I think a joint account is the best way to go. Individual accounts lead to financial fukkery and secrets, especially if one partner is bad with money. A joint account forces you to work together with finances. It also allows the person who sucks with money to see how their bad habits are impacting the marriage.

Can't you do all of that with separate accounts though? If they want to spend money, shouldn't they spend their own? After paying bills of course.

Nope. Secrets have no place in a marriage.

That's if you want to stay married

Damn, I hate that I don't think this way. I've never imagined that someone would do that and I typically think of and try to prepare for the worse. People are fukking scum.

No. There is no such thing as "your own money"

Thoughts like that are why marriages fail.

You don't have to, but you can't read minds so having a separate account would be the only way of preparing for the worst. Preventive action right.

Nope, own account...
