I know alot of married couples still do the 50/50 arrangement with the mortgage , bills etc....
You have your money and i have mine and that's the way it will stay.
Beats the shit out of me why they got married in the first place if this is the way they go on but it's good for his punting i'd say.
Anyway the trick is to controll the finances and don't be greedy. Syphon a little but not too much.
I'm lucky to get work bonuses on a regular basis and paddy power has been good to me.
My punting cash is like gold dust and i don't part with it too easily so i chose wisely and if i don't have i don't go. Simple
When you are in control of the finances, it does make life easier
Very very wise words Maxi, good preparation is the half the battle. Good reviews, genuine profile, true independent girls, its well worth taking the time to choose wisely. And exercising restraint, like you say, if you dont have, dont go
My money is her money and her money, well is hers lol
Not an issue for me, I have a joint account but I would regularly take a few hundred out when I am going out or even to just have cash in my wallet, it's a sliding scale, some wives might get suspicious if a few hundred went missing out of their account, with mine it would be a few thousand
