I've been divorced almost 2 years. My X made almost the exact same as me. I keep the house, she walked with half the equity.
With almost the same mortgage payment and just my income, I've increased my savings/ retirement rate from 6% to low 20%, few months ahead on my mortgage and an actual emergency fund.
I have no ideas where our money was going...
Women are bad with money in general. I'm convinced of it. I pay all of our bills and manage all of our investments. I spend approximately 30%-35% of my income a year on expenses to include mortgage/power/food/water/internet/phone/etc. The remaining 65% I invest and always have.
And I still don't want for anything.
My wife makes like $30k less than I do and saves much less despite having no bills of any kind. I don't get it. She spent $2k on a fitness/nutrition program I told her was fucking retarded and I would not support spending a single red cent on it. To which she got super pissed that I didn't support her in this retardation. Well no shit all of that guys bullshit is free on youtube or whatever. She did it because all of her retarded friends do. The, "trainer" is some faggot in Spain who guides them all on zoom and discord. Pretty sweet scam on his part.
When we do have kids and if she decides to not work I told her she's in for a rude awakening as I will not tolerate any of that bullshit.
I get pretty annoyed with her attitude about arguing. I absolutely hate being angry and fighting. Especially so over dumb shit. While she is direct about it she much prefers me being angry and yelling and fighting over whatever to just deal with stuff it isn't really in my usual nature. Guess it's an East European mentality. I've resigned myself to my fate that I just have to force her to do what I want and that for some reason she likes it that way.
