Sure i'm in the giving mood. i'm reserving the card for a special person!!!

Did U have to rub it in . So, I no special reach abi?, may amadioha make love to U this night

Amadioha will be sending a faithful servant in the guise of a nubile female my way!!!

and that would be Sango

Personally,

Methinks your unclothedness is more valuable than your money. If you can give your nudity away, why not your money? If you can share the deepest and the darkest secrets the world cannot afford to see, why not your account of which the cashier can see?

Having a joint account can only come in if you know your partner properly. If he/she is the type who's after the latest stuffs in town, you'd better give it a second thought. There are more downs than ups IMOO and I won't advice people who only met last week to try it out, neither would I people who met over the internet (sharing lies)

If your partner is the only one who get's that secret thing, let her be the only one who sees your account and has access to it - only that some greedy ones can murder the other all for money (it's not new in this part of the world) and this is where i'd like to say that it's only safe for "Deeper Life" Members . Believe me, you may not see the point here, but I can see it clearly

davidylan:

my dear, quit the attitude. It wont get you very far. A lot of men including my humble self will not consider marrying a fulltime housewife because my own mum worked herself out to provide for us too.
But an attitude like yours coming into a marriage where compromise, patience, humility (i don't mean slavish submission!) and longsuffering are essential ingredients will not augur well.

Every man is going into a relationship fully aware of his financial responsibilities which is why naija men marry late. How do you pay school fees? what of a mortgage? How do you take collective financial decisions? By asking him to bring 50% while you do the same? What if one of the parties has a financial downturn for some reason or the other. Will you be borrowing him money?

I really don't have an attitude or anything of that matter, i understand everything the Bible says about marriage, and how you have to compromise and all that stuff, but like everyone else i have limits.
i mean i'm not stupid to just jump into a marriage without laying out issues that matter, like seperate accounts that way i don't have to keep asking you for everything, and me not being a fulltime housewife, and others. both parties have to be in agreement before it can work, and having seperate account doesn't mean i am disrespecting my husband.

lai lai

Make una no mind all these ladies, If the husband is an Adenuga, Dangote or an IBB, they'll say yes y not? But if na person wey both of una dey try una best i.e. maybe salary earners dem go say no. Anyway i don't see any serious minded man that has his business even thinking about stuff like sharing his whole account with anybody (Una want make hin dey take permission from the woman b4 hin go run hin business?). Me i think if you are both salary earners or something, u can have a joint a/c and ur own individual a/c.

That's my own view o.

As far as i am concern i cannot share my account with my husband. dosent make sence.

na frustration cause am!

I personally beleive in some sort of joint target account. That is we fund the account for specific purpose like investment or a house etc . For day to day expenditure we'll each have seperate accounts.

It sounds to me that the institution of marriage is flawed at best. The two people are always afraid that the other will leave and take everything? Divorce should be illegal under normal circumstances. Aha! Now that would change the dynamics of marriage.

About this "loveless" marriage. Did you ever stop loving your brother or sister when you grew up? Your father, if he happened to stay (that seems unlikely given the nature of this board). Why should you stop loving your wife? It is a societal flaw that this is possible. I see the bible referenced often. Let me tell you what it is to say that a sheet of paper separates you from a partner and that you are free to indulge elsewhere. It is adultery. But that is human nature, and this is a less than ideal world. It seems to me that in this environment, joint accounts are naive and stupid.

It all depends on the level of understanding btw the two of them,nothing is wrong wit it irrespective of d husband earning more(who shld earn more dan the wife).

on a second thought, yes, if i can share my body with him, i think i should be able to share a secondary thing like ordinary money with him.

I cannot totally share an account with husssy, we would have our seperate accounts then maybe one joint account.,., unless of course he is Bill Gates

Guys,

Its sheer stupidity to operate a joint account. Any of the party could "messup" later and would want to claim the cash. I want all the women to wise up and not act stupid. It doesn't make u less loving if u don't operate a joint account. In heaven u won't be judged together it is every man for himself.

@Topic
Only with one account oh! That joint account should be a checking account to pay common house hold bills jointly shared. No joint savings account please oh! THE DEVIL IS A LIAR! There should be 3!  Yours, mine and ours oh!  This is America.  If you have a joint venture---you both go down together  if one of the parties decides to mess up!  It is only wise to keep certain things apart till you have celebrated your 50th year anniversary!

Of course i would agree to it but as a woman we have to be wise and look out for ourselves and the kids so, i would have another account though in ma name and ma name alone.

But if he starts to complain, i would say the account belongs to the kids.

Cause in this world of uncertainty when the only constant and certain thing is God, we have to be wise.

Y wont i share an account with my husband. He will credit and i will do all the withdrawing ke.

Not if he doesnt want to get bankrupted.

Is there any problem with dat? Yes l can share my acccount with my husband.

Let me tell you this short story of my friend.

She is in relationship of four years, she is a student after her ND she go for her I.T and she agree to have joint account with her husband to be. the account was registered in the name of this guy he is the only one that has access to it even if she need money it has to go through him and she is the only one that put money into this account without any kobo from this guy. she is doing her I.T in Lagos the guy is in Ibadan to cut the story short last month she cought her guy with another lady and the guy beat her up that is the end of that relationship all her salary on nine month is gone.

As for me nothing wrong with having joint account with my husband or my husband to be but I will have another seperate account on my own.

I will share a bank account him for things concerning the family but i will have another one for myself.
