This came to my amusement when I asked someone if he knows how much his partner is earning and to my surprise he said they don't disclose it to each other ( Can't really understand what led to the conversation )

How do you see this, do you think it is right for your partner not to know how much you earn as salary ??

False/No declaration of assets and liabilities is very wrong.

ladyF:

say something about it

How will they plan well if they dunno how much they earn

Maybe one of them mismanage money tho.

Wrong


But me I will hide mine sha for at least the first 10 years .... been burnt before kole happen second time around !

I would'nt even want my partner to be telling me how much she earns.

U all should declare ur stuffs, or else it would look like a marriage based on contract, u won't enjoy it.

Very wrong although some people sees it as nothing.

Wrong, very wrong!

It's very wrong to hide it. Being open will enable for the futur planing of the family.

ladyF:
False/No declaration of assets and liabilities is very wrong.

I won't mind her hiding her assets,
but liabilities oh my gosh i hate debts...
she better voice it out,
shey na for better for worst?
But, do we still practice this in a "sane environment"?
what do I know...just passing bye

b/w I'm a stern believer of that code till death do us.....whatever

Wrong, it shows they did not trust each other

If she is my wife, I will let her know. But my GF, It is a NO NO for me.

it's neither right or wrong... it's left.

The question is for those whose partners are civil servants.
How can you know the monthly earning of a business man/woman?
But generally its not a big deal knowing, my hubby don't know how much I'm paid as salary because such information is not relevant to him.
A man should be focused on each of their own earnings and financial empire and not be concerned about what each other earns monthly .

A wife must never know what her husband earns or his source of income.
It is none of her business, her job is just to enjoy the wealth and make babies for the man, that's why they are called 'oriaku'.

But a woman's income must be known,
It's source well defined;
Before you unknowingly start eating food cooked from money gotten through prostitution.

Wrong. There is no place for secrecy in marriage else distrust will set in.

Meanwhile check my signature

Very wrong.

Very wrong, that means no trust exist in such union

Not wise, but can be for safety.

You want to drop your missile right?

Till I marry

Disaster

It depends.

There is no answer that fits all


If you marry a spender who will be breathing heavily until he / she finish spending whatever you have.

You will be doing your children strong thing if you let your partner know the exact amount you earn. You will not have any savings.


If your partner can help manage your finance then why not ?

There is no formula for a great marriage. You can apply Olu Jacobs and Joke Silva method and you will still not last for 6months.

Be emotionally intelligent. That is the key.

Why do the marri in first place

Totally wrong.. My wife shud know how much I earn and we will run same account..... She must know all my password and I will know hers.

This is y I like western couples... They run same account and monitor each other's spending

Okay

I would NOT tell my wife how much I earn.... and I don't care to know how much she earns.... I am not yet married by the way.
