honestly if someone's even doing that they HAVE to maximize the money that they can get from the man that forced them to quit their job or make sure that the man is giving you twice or triple your paycheck so he'll high-key be your souce of income and a FREEDOM to finance, if not then that's just financial abuse.
agreed… i would have to have a personal savings account with a substantial amount of money AND a an advanced degree before i would even think of doing this even then i would want them to deposit money into my own personal bank account like no way my whole life is going to be tied to either a joint account or someone else’s information ?? also what if they use it as a way of making you feel bad because “i spend so much on you” like i would have to trust this person 100% before even considering living like this because if he leaves me and cancels all the cards and drains the joint account or he starts beating me then what am i going to do with no assets of my own… NOT HAPPENING!!! in an alternate universe tho this is my dream
This is why you dont ONLY have a joint account. You should have a joint account for your family and have a separate personal account for yourself. In fact, dont even get a joint account if you arent married, this includes joint account with anybody, even parents.
Yup, i agree 100% even if you’re working. I’ve seen a working mom get screwed over because all her money got deposited into a joint account and not her own so her husband drained all their finances and she couldn’t do anything about it :/ scary stuff
Ik ppl in the comments are joking but in case someone actually seriously dreams of this kind of life, dont. A man forcing you to quit your work, your job, any source of income, and them providing you 100% is bad because it becomes some sort of leash preventing you from leaving them because you dont have the means to support yourself or (if youre married) get divorced. Even if you become a housewife always at least have some side hustle/passive income/savings
