When our daughter was born I took 2ys off work to be a fulltime mom and my husband supported our family, financially. This summer my husband is going to take time off and be the primary caregiver for our daughter that means I will be breadwinner. In our household there is no 'my money', it's OUR money, so it doesn't matter who it comes home with as long as it is coming in, we are happy 🤷🏾♀️
I have dated women who have careers, their own businesses etc. While I work at 9 to 5 traditional jobs. Most didn't seem to care. Because I have two bank accounts, 401 K, Investment money etc.."I will never go broke " is my philosophy when it comes to finances.
As a man that has made less than my wife for the majority of our relationship, it has been a change in mindset. However, my wife allows me to be the leader of the household and not only did I pick up a side hustle to close the gap but I also relive her of alot if house hold and kid duties when tired or just showing my appreciation. Money really doesn't matter as far as the long term happiness. I have seen so many relationships where the man made more end up in cheating or just breaking up but I have also seen other people relationship where the woman makes more work out. Just depends on the couple
Ooooh, you said allowed. Your money is not what determines your masculinity. No one allows you to be a man. You either are, or you aren't. If you're being allowed, that means it can change.
@@Mikedread876 you're looking at the words a little bit to hard. What I meant is she doesn't stand in my way for anything. I am the man of the household, but my wife doesn't stand in the way that, wild making more of that makes sense
If both parties DO NOT allow the money to go to their heads AND both are contributing to 🤝🏽 and supporting 🙏🏽the relationship - things should work out. 😊
For me it’s extremely important that I date some one who is financially equal as me or at least makes a little more than I do because I come from a wealthy family and I had a horrible experience with my ex boyfriend. When I was dating him I was working full time and going to college full time. My ex boyfriend has never been to college and the same with his parents, the only educated one with more than a high school degree was his youngest brother who is a technician. My parents didn’t like the fact that my ex didn’t go to college and so my parents explained to him that I’m going to be a part of my parents business that they own, and so he needs to know how important it is for him to set goals because my parents didn’t wanted me to date someone who I met at a job that’s more for students and not for the rest of my life, which I respected that of my ex because I actually did loved him a lot. A year later i decided to take a break from school, and well I moved in with my ex and things went horrible. He quit his job and then he just stopped working in general and made me pay all the bills for everything because him and his family thought that if he quit, that my parents were going to pay for everything and let us both move back to my parents house. Because that never happened, he wanted to take a break and i ended up breaking up with him when he said that. Things were so awful because his family really thought that they were going to have part of my parents business because they thought that just because we lived together for a bit over a year, that it gave him a right for everything. So I don’t ever want to make that mistake by dating someone who’s less fortunate or makes less money and comes from a well poor family because they’re only interested in what they can gain.
*Single people* are worried about who is the bread winner because, they do not understand when you're married it's your money together and if you can't trust the other person to be in this dynamic then you shouldn't say I do to have a cool party. What ever works for your relationship is what works, do not let anyone who's name is not on the *marriage certificate* tell you how to live.
Out of everything I have heard, if a man dates a woman who makes it more, she will treat you less than at times, the respect level is not going to be there...ect. I'm not saying the relationship won't work, it would just take more effort on a man's side. It's the reason why all men want to make a lot of money and then date someone who is way beneath him. She would listen, she'll be supportive, she will take your lead and you don't have to deal with her mouth in comparison to the woman who makes more. The woman who makes a lot of money will will have a higher chance to end up alone. In a lot of cases, women are making more money nowadays so they really don't have no real incentives since they don't us for survival. This don't apply to all women but a good majority it does
I EXperienced the other way around.... Fot the most part I always make less than a Black Woman, while she has the *"Money"* problem(beef). Which she would figure out & ask, "You are smart & Intelligent, why DON'T you make such & such or have that or that." Mind YOU I work hard, with My Skills I have. Sometimes it doesn't always look so pretty in Life or pan out as others, I am.... that coin of the other side. My Race Women have an High Value for Monetary Non-Material things so. Money is a Deal Breaker for MAJORITY of Black Women unfortunately. That's why we are having Less Children, & Less Black on Black Marriage. No one talks about that. So I get it, Money shouldn't Be the Reason two people are Together. Love More Money Less should Be Thy Model. But whatever🤷🏾
@@OthoWilliamsJr Trust me, I think most guys even me have dated women who made less. It's hard out here trying to find a decent black woman who like you say, isn't making the relationship about money... If they date you, they're going to attempt to hit your pockets and if they don't get anything then they're going to the next guy. Majority of the time that's the case but one time in my life I dated a woman who made more. I think he was the worst relationship too. If they make less than you, they always begging for money. If they make more than you then they going to talk back to you and be little you.
@@Dee--Jay Yes sirrrrree❗, it is NOT the Man, Black, that has a problem with who makes more. It's these Females *smh* But yet again, we ONLY as a Race: Vet, & Coddle the One Sides Black Race Story. It is NOT always the Man that makes Money an Issue, we know that which WILL NEVER be interpreted that way🙄🤷🏾. Same ole same ole man
@@OthoWilliamsJr money is a deal breaker for all women. It’s just that, unfortunately, black women have to face the decision to date men of less means or be single more often than other races of women because in all other races there are plenty of men who out earn their women. Black women have fewer chances of meeting a man of their same race with sufficient income to provide a comfortable life.
@@Dee--Jay ... I can’t speak for all women, but I’m sure many will agree that it’s not just because a man makes less money that a women gravitate less to him. It’s his character, how he carries himself and his purpose. Low earning men appear to have less drive and purpose; some waste time on games and other non productive things and thus don’t command respect as leaders. But a man who is, say, a teacher, firefighter, a military man (idk, something that doesn’t pay a lot but allows him to serve and influence) can still garner respect from women who earn more because he is showing character, purpose and leadership qualities.
Men don’t put a lot of value on how much money a woman makes nearly as much as women do. Men in general don’t mind if a woman makes more money as long as she still brings peace, respect and time to the relationship. What I’ve seen is that when women make more money they stop doing the things that men value as important and then later claim the man was insecure after they break up.
It depends on what people are willing to accept in a relationship. My standards are a little different from these ladies; to me, the man should earn more money than the woman because he is the head of the house and the leader. If he wants to be respected by his wife he should want to provide for his family. That's my take, I don't expect every woman to agree.
I would have to say I agree with what you’re saying Lisa it’s all about respect and if you want to be respected as the man of the house then you need to be pulling your weight which to me would be making more money but in this day and age it’s like that’s kind of difficult to find either they end up making more money and have a nasty attitude and treat you like crap or they make less money and be the man that you’re looking for as far as all the other aspects.
I think each person should be close is earnings...especially if the couple enjoys vacationing, etc..the basic living expenses can be alot depending on lifestyle and where how you live...Personally I don’t want to pay majority of $$ for bills etc
I would prefer to be with someone who makes more than me but him making less than me is not a complete dealbreaker. It’s all about his mentality and drive. A HUSTLA’ @ HEART 🤤 He can make more and not even be agood provider/protector. Be with someone that not only honors you but also guides and protects you. You’ll never have a want for anything when you’re with someone who anticipates your needs.
I(32) am disciplined, hardworking but poor. I have had a brain injury and therefore don’t have the privilege to visit college or another institution to get higher education. Despite learning a lot and being interested I barely passed high school. I tried college but dropped out soon. Over the years I survived with small jobs like dishwashing or working as a waiter. Whenever I encounter women in a romantic context, they ghost me after learning about my educational past. Some even called me lazy. Its hilarious. I am getting judged for something I never had control over. Its sad. If you are poor - and already fighting with everyday struggle to survive - you are also not receiving any lovea and constanly judged negatively. Though those women never walked a day in your shoes.
The challenge, sir, is that no sensible woman wants her children to be poor... so, for your family to progress she will have to carry everyone financially. That's a big risk since she will be having the children, and if things go wrong, you are not prepared to pick up the slack. Cold, hard facts... but, there are solutions available. Here is a way around: there is a channel called JT Automations. He has good business ideas anyone with hustle and discipline can do and make good money. Also, Journey with the Hintons -- she has a lot of good side hustle ideas. These are things that, if done consistently, can secure YOU financially and then give you a chance to secure a family. Not all women will understand... but remember: it only takes ONE. One woman understood and had compassion ... you just need to prepare to find ONE MORE.
Black women are far more willing to accept this type of relationship. Black men as well... I couldn't respect a man that was ok with making less money than his woman. That masculine energied woman, feminine energied man component that has proven toxic and destructive in the dynamics between Black men and women.
If this is how most women really are than I can get with that. I just hear to much to a man being labeled in value based on how much he makes a wallet. I use to make the most my wife does now she makes more but I’m still confident in my role I know my place as a man is still needed.
For me, this lines up to 1. What vision does the man have for himself, his wife, and his children enjoying and achieving, as the family unit but ALSO individually (because the kids have to become functional adults in the world, and their parents already are but need to be maintained)? 2. Is the income the man himself has commensurate to putting a solid foundation on his family vision? If No. 1 does not exist or No. 2 is NO, then the most loving thing a man for his future wife and children can do is get those questions and the income necessary in order. Any child can DAYDREAM, and love in a child's hopeful but utterly dependent way. Much more is required of a man who wishes to be family leader.
Stewardship is the key, it doesn't matter how much you make but are you responsible with the money you are making. Are you consistent with paying bills, saving money, paying off debt, giving tithe and offering if your'e a Christian.
Exactly do you bro me and my wife don’t do society Norms a lot of what’s wrong with this world. Society tells you that if you don’t look a certain way to the masses people will judge you.
Thing is she won't respect you and might even get resentment especially when kids cc come but for sake of peace in the home some women will still try and let him lead.
To me I would PREFER a man to make the same or more. If he makes less and wants to live with less while I work hard and love to live a little more extravagant it won’t work. I love nice things home car trips savings and I work hard to attain these and you are happy with “decent” sorry it’s gonna be hard for me. Even a guy who makes money he can be very cheap or frugal where it hinders my idea of fine living it won’t work. I grew up Poot to mediocre and I worked hard to have more I don’t need to be complacent because you want to. I say this with the ideas of never being broke until the day I day or live struggling.
Sorry but I believe they’re only saying this for the video. 100% their hypergamy will make them look for a wealthier man. And they will want to start spending more on holidays, clothes and expensive restaurants. When the bill comes, their lesser earning partner will still be expected to pay, which puts pressure on him. His money is theirs and her money is hers. Just nature
As long as he is able to pay for his meal and bills i dnt hve an issue..but if he expects me to pay just bcz i have more..now thats a problem..if the roles were reversed i still will pay for my own..he can too
