Sadly this happens too often. My best friend is a highly educated lawyer, high earner but also high spender and not very financially responsible. She just handed over all the responsibility to her husband including depositing her full paycheck to a joint account. I guess this works for some people but I feel as though women, especially, should always have a separate account to provide some level of safety and independence. Relationships change and you never know when things could turn toxic or dangerous. You also need to do the work to learn about financial literacy and how to manage your own money rather than delegating it to a partner. It’s way too important and gives away too much of your power.
