This is one issue that has been highly contentious. There seems to be sharp disagreements when ever this issue is brought up. And this is for obvious reasons. It's actually confusing.

As one who intends to marry in the nearest future, I know no knowledge is a waste regarding marital stuff. I am also not someone who prefer learning from my experience. I believe learning from other people's experience is far better. Beside, not all experience provide one with a second chance...One might not live to put the learned experience to use, you know!

So, here are the questions:
Should a husband open up to his wife about all his income?
What are the pros and cons of such an action
Pls be mature in making your point.

I blv there should be transparency

yes cus u need to plan ur future together

That should not be a cause for problem

i am about calling it quits with my bae cos she thinks a man shouldnt care about what a woman earns..

i cant understand.

money shouldnt be a secret...

infact i love women cos of their frugality, they are good accountants.


so my wife would know my earnings, infact, ill give her the bulk to run the house, save in our joint accounts.. while i keep some change for beer or other miscellaneous



guys ... lemme warn u... before dating, know what that gurl thinks about finance, and also know her religious belief...

for me.. secretive, superstitious, die-by-fire pple are not my type.. i hope i become free soonest

and i deserve to know how she spends hers too.

only if she's not a spendthrift. She would request less when she knows your income

No try am

Even when you know that the ' financial transparency' would definitely bring about ridiculous demands from her

to an understanding wife, yes

Is necessary for couples to know how much each and everyone of them makes a month.it helps in managing well.

Shydon:

Kini Big Deal

ojun50:

no soul on earth can know how much I earn

bt mean while

If I can't trust my wife or share such then there's no point getting married to such
