WILL YOU SHARE YOUR INCOME WITH YOUR PARTNER ?

WILL YOU SHARE YOUR INCOME WITH YOUR PARTNER ?

The other day,my wife was lamenting about the high cost of items in the market and how the family income was been greatly affected by the sudden increase of food items,but she made a hughely remarkable comment that we will be shareing today’thank God for our joint account ‘.This got me thinking we ae not feeling the effect of this increae much due to the fact that we are able to pull our resources together and dont sweat about it much.
But sincerely it was and is not easy to achieve such a feat in this hard times with the kind of economy that we are living in it’s pretty much difficult.We did largely to the fact that we had already planned this type of programme out prior to this time and we simply fell back on the plan that we had already developed.

These days many intending couples dont sit down to plan what the future hold for there marriage they take it as it comes and often grumble and complain when situations bercome too hard,they hardly have any backend plans for tomorow.
Many find it difficult now to lay the card on the table to help sustain the family.Many families today are keeping seperate accounts ,and hardly want to bring out money talkless of admiting they have it within there reach.The Holy script tells us what the man and woman must do as aunit,Genesis 2 ;24,says ‘both shall be one’,the Holy book did not say man have yours and woman have yours,but both shall become ONE, indivisiable unit unbroken and unshaken.

Why do many find it difficult to maintain a single family account ?

Looking at the many reasons posited by mainly the female gender they feel that the male will not want them to know how much they earn talkless of seeing the salary at the end of the month,Trust is a word they find to hard to think and TRUST, for they feel the man can withdraw from the account at any time he feels like and lavish it on competiton outside which is quite true if properly investigated.Many women will rather collect money from the man and use it to her own taste than allow the man to dictate for her,they prefer to spend the money they earn on the kids and for ther own upkeep rather than allow the man have the upper hand in monitary affairs of the home.Running the home is the woman’s domain but the man contributes his quota in the form of keeping money at home for contingencies.
Meanwhile the men also says that they will find it difficult to keep money along with the wife,since they will not feel like the man of the house since the woman will want a detailed account of spendings within a period of time,they feel caged not expressing themself the way they want to.

That is the true essence of having a joint account with your partner ,spendings that are not worth thinking about are cut off while the econmics of prefrence comes to the front in your decision making,you are both able to harness what the basic family needs are and work towards getting it.So will you share your monthly income in a joint account with your partner ?.
