Marriage Future Financial Arrangement.

[serjent05]

I grow in an environment where the wife holds the money and takes care of the financial budget.  My country does not approve of divorce, but marriages can be annulled.  I think it is practical to talk about future financial arrangements, that is, if the couple does not trust each other.

Then if couples do not trust each other then what is the use of getting married when they can just be a live-in partner and do anything they want without any legal commitment to each other.  They can have their own separate purse and share expenses for houses and kids.

Before getting  married you need to talk about  your future financial arrangements with your intended spouse now.You can do this by considering some of these questions, Like how will our income be budgeted? Will we have a joint bank account or separate accounts? Which spouse will be more adept at keeping  financial records  and seeing that bills are paid? How much money can one of us spend on a purchase without consulting the other?
            So what's your suggestions or what's your take on this!

It’s quite obvious people get married to their partner without trust, I read every comment funny enough a joint account might lead to more misunderstanding when there’s no trust among each other. Nowadays joint account system is only possible when both parties provide equally, when both are working with a good financial structure joint account becomes stress free not the regular cheating pattern when only the husband or wife builds the account only. I understand before marriage it’s appropriate to talk things out like the budget mentioned above, although not everyone is wise when it comes to spending and creating a nice budget reason why transparency is important probably anyone facing challenges in any of these aspect will let the other handle such.

I like the message of the thread. Negligence and ignorance and even emotional attachments with partners had really blind people with their senses off their minds to even understand that after all the good times indoors and outdoors events as riding on the luxuries, there should be plans for long term financial sustainability before you gets married.

In the right sense, you should also marry spouse who you can share your financial experience with and not get betrayed. ( Will also advice that we stay careful of being transparent with our spouse and finance for safe reasons.
It is also good to have very good financial management or industrious spouse who can also contribute one way the other when you are in need.

Perhaps a lot of them are liabilities and just there for the money and disappears when there is no money.

couples should really consider having a prenuptial agreement that dictates what's theirs and what's not this might seem unromantic to some but this is the reality and a good way to protect yourself just in case things happen

it's not unromantic.. it's practical!!

Most of the times people have problems with such documents because they view them as a path towards divorce, as if one of the people within the relationship was "getting ready for divorce", when in reality is a safe net for both parties, so they can protect their respective assets.
Giving how common divorces are in societies like the United States and Europe, it is perfectly understandable of men want to get things clear in the case marriage goes to hell.

Nobody wants to get divorced. It that sense, Prenuptial agreements are like an insurance.

I think it’s one of the most important conversations to have before getting married , financially arrangement is necessary, they should reached out on agreement because if you are married to someone who is extra vagent in spending it will alway result to issues , so their should be conversation not only money management but others things will be discussed.

To me I will prefer joint account when both partners are working ,whereas the man is the one doing the savings and working , then the woman will in charge of spending and keeping record , i feel she may not handle the resources well because she is not contributing a dime but just spending which may result to issue , so the best is for both parties to save together, plan on what to do with it , with this managing your financial won’t be hard .

If the woman you marry is a career woman who has her own job and income, then yes, this needs to be done from the start. That way, everything will be clear from the beginning, so there will be no need to argue about financial matters later on. However, if the woman you marry is not a career woman and when you marry her, she will only focus on taking care of the household, then this is not necessary. Unless we see that our wife is good at managing money, then we can give them some of our money and let them manage it well. However, there are also women who are not good at managing finances, so it is better to prepare a budget according to our needs after discussing it together. but nowadays, there are more career women than non-career women. So, as the original poster said, we really need to make as thorough preparations as possible.

The plans to consider the above mentioned questions a necessity before getting married is a good move as it will help in balancing the union financial stress and reduced marital conflicts caused by assumptions on income unfaithfulness. Both knowing there financial strength at times helps in reducing unnecessary expenses as both will know what is coming to the table and how to manage it in bills payments of all kinds. But before doing that one must know what his partner is capable of doing as some partners are parasites in human form who's job is to drain or suck the man dry and move on.

And before answering those questions, just make sure that both of you are ready to enter and to be in one flesh.
Both of you have to make decisions equally and it's a mutual understanding so that not any of you will be stepped on for your decisions.
While the questions are valid, because number one reason why partners are separating is due to financial problems.

Couples should consider a long engagement before taking a vow, so they can get to know the character and mindset of their potential partners. It's different when couples are talking about this, because they are in a honeymoon stage, they will try to be as cooperative as possible.
But it's different when they are living together, soa  couple should at least have a two or three-year engagement, when they are fully familiar with each other then that's the time that they can talk these things to each other, there's no backing out if your country do not have a divorce, you stuck to your partner for life and bith of you will suffer, because of different ideas and opinions.

I agree with you, I saw an article about this popular boxer, Anthony Joshua, saying any woman that will gonna get married to him will surely undergo prenup agreement before marriage, and then many women aren't ready for this. He said.
This day women aren't ready to spend in marriage, they want men to take their responsibility while they sit and do nothing. Anyway, the only woman ready for this should be able to submit under the leadership of men and track every income, save and then establish themselves. Women knows how to do that.

I don't know if this is region or country specific but from my country, women just want to lay down while the man does all the work and financial planning. Their own is to make requests and do as they please in majority of the instances, hence why they prefer to marry already made-men.

Financial agreement for the future of a marriage should be a strategic planning between both couples and this is what should lead to the conclusion of the marriage would last or not.
Where both parties fail to plan how to manage assets, debts and income during the marriage period, in times of divorce or separation or even death, it becomes a huge problem.

There should be binding legal agreements and practical management involved for a marriage to work out well.

Modern perceptions of marriage has really destroyed the main purpose of the institution as originally ordained right form time immemorial. In today's world marriage by means of financial and social stables has being relegated to a thing of common contract between two adults.

Broad day light events has made and taught partners to beckon on prenuptial contract agreed upon marriage from fear of a fall from desire, satisfaction and feelings from the other  partner. How isn't this not unromantic? With absence of genuine trust.

Personally I think it would be a good idea to discuss financial planning before marriage. It is better to discuss what the person you are going to marry likes and dislikes whether she will be earning money after marriage and to decide on the family budget.

If your wife works both of you should be responsible for paying all the bills of the family. You should be separate accounts and a savings account and an investment portfolio are necessary.

Financial planning is very important in marriage because marriage comes with a lot of responsibility which money is needed and if you dont make plans for this you will always go broke and just imagine you have your own business,

 it can affect your business that you will end up spending all you have and if you are an employee who depends on salary you will be able to meet up with savings. Making plans for money management is something that is very important in marriage, and with this plan you can be able to achieve financial goals.

This is is a very good idea that you have outlined here, to some persons they just want to get married, when they have small money, they think that they can start with that which I feel is not bad too but where the problem lies is when they do not think beyond that, whenever we decide to marry, we are supposed to start thinking for 3 to 4 persons,ni mean how to accommodate, cloth, and feed these number of persons I mentioned because once you get married as a man, you and your wife and the unborn children should be planned for, marriage is not a joke, some persons do not understand this fact, it requires two people from different family background to be mentally mature and and ready before they get married, if not, it will end so quick.

Agreed........
Love will never  pay bills nor cover financial hardship.so its very important as a couple you shouldn't wait after marriage to discuss money management rather You both should discuss about it before getting married to avoid emotional harm which may erode your relationship with your spouse.

Don't every couple do this before or after getting married?, I think they should, because financial responsibility at some point is certainly a discussion that everyone must have, whether we like it or not. Even in a case where only party feels like handling everything because he/she is capable of doing so. In the journey of marriage, love is never enough because money plays a huge. There is no crime In having such discussion with your future partner, because there is a need for both parties to understand the financial capabilities of one and another.

Getting a clear financial agreements before or After marriage is very important and this includes trust and transparency among  couples and that's because when it comes to financial agreements among couples both parties most be truthful now the question is how truthful can one be  without trust and transparency there's no need talking about financial stuffs because if one spouse will find out about what wasn't mentioned during the discussion it can lead to trust issues and mostly cause problem in marriage

One of the reasons why people get married is for their financial needs to be met and mostly in some get married cause they need to balance that fact, that not withstanding before any couples are set for marriage or to settle down their financial state should be considered thoroughly so they can build up a good financial commitment for their family and kids. In essence such arrangements is supposed to be made to secure and seak their future benefits.

However, it is important to note that discussions between couples must be held at the right moment and when both parties are comfortable. This is because some people do not like to talk about finances. There are even people who do not tell their wives about their finances even after marriage. The opposite is also true. However, to maintain the integrity of the household, it is better to discuss everything early on. Or, in my opinion, even after marriage, it's okay. We can discuss it slowly as we go along. Because we know that sometimes there are things that people who are not yet married cannot understand, and they will begin to understand after marriage. However, one thing that both parties must commit to before marriage is to be honest, to depend on each other, and to cover each other's shortcomings after marriage. Whether it's financial or other matters.

However, the best option is still to discuss it and come to an agreement before getting married. but remember that marriage is not like a business partnership. It is more like sharing the same body, so when one person feels pain, everyone else feels it too. The same applies to finances. Without this attitude, I doubt that harmony can be achieved, even if everything about finances is clear from the start. And don't let financial problems become an obstacle to continuing the marriage.

Men have the advantage here actually but we are too dumb to use it. Once you are able to say "no" to an agreement that is not fair, all the troubles disappear. When enough number of people follow the same pattern, it becomes the norm. It is sad that many men are willingly allowing themselves to get scammed. Prenup agreements don't favor men or women, they ensure equality which is something women should want in the first place but when they demand "equality", they usually want privileges, that's usually what feminism is all about anyway.

In any event, a popular boxer, who stays single because his gf refused the prenup... and he has lots money... whose loss it that? Not the boxer's.
