Shouldn't men take care of all the bills once married?

[;;thiscould bean opportunity;;]

Isn't marriage a two-way thing? Why should the woman keep savings and the man not?

I think you're living in a dream world....

i think the bills should b split. cuz its both of u guys responsibility.

Paul S

only if you got a sugar daddy otherwise no put your hand it your pocket 50/50 all the way

i feel that they should both put their money together and pay them self first and then pay all the bills together

I think you should discuss this with your husband.

Well, Lets see. If your marriage is a true partner ship, then all funds go into ONE account and all the bills are paid from there. Take that Gloria!

Kevin

wtf. ok y should it be like that. if u both have jobs and both have 1 house. yeah let the wife spend it all on w.e she wants while the husband pays for what u two both live in.. yeah

so alone

this is 2008...with everything being so high u should both pay and put some away

I think that is a nice fantasy.... just like the land of Oz...... not realistic in this economy and not a real team effort for a couple.

Couple's choice.

I think it should be 50-50 they should both take part in paying bills and save the whatever is left over.... from both of their checks. When you get married it's supposed to be 50-50 and for me personally I would feel better knowing that I contributed as much as I could so this way no one can say "this is what I did for you" but that's just me.

I think women and men should play equal parts in paying bills and in saving money and furthermore I think that it's narrow-minded to come up with economic gender roles!

Personally, I've always paid my way so I dont have things held over my head. I think it's up to the couple. In my case I prefer 50/50 for shared expenses but for my own personal things I pay 100 %. Good luck.

most couples have joint accounts. the money goes in and bills get paid.

Wouldn't you rather I just gave you my paycheck and you pay the bills.

paganmom

Why not just put the incomes together and pay the bills and save the rest? It's not one persons money over another persons money, you are married, it's the couples money.

no marriage is a MUTUAL relationship both parties should contribute

Crush

Oh you're just a typical crazy, shallow bimbo.

See ya in divorce court!

i think if we both create the bills and decide together on what to get, then we both contribute towards them equally. My husband and I share an account all money goes to one place, and it is our money, not just his or just mine.

Hello Trojan Girl,
welcome to the 21st century...

It depends on what the couple decided together. Split things fifty fifty.

no, joint. both save excess earning for emergencies

I think you should have been born in the 1950's.

Are you planning to stay barefoot and pregnant as well?

I think your marriage would last two months, tops.

Matt

WHAT
It should be a split responsibility.
I hope you aren't married........ If you are, it is going to be a short marriage.

zaphodsclone

What, you wanted a sponsor not a spouse?

Erik Y

I think your living in the 1800's

just put it all in one bank account & MIX IT ALL UP! who cares which money, just put the money where it should go.

are his dollars different from yours?????

kaisa

That's kind of an old fashion way of thinking and i agree with you since i'm kinda old fashion too. That way the woman can use those saving in case of emerngery or back up.

But it's all depend on the couples, everyone is different. Sometimes they want to splits all the payment and have each individual saving account (in case of divorce in the future)
