Gender roles…

we have unified finances and set budget and I do not allow spending more than the budget..

To say.. Yes.. I write a check ” pay to the order of my girlfriend”..

That way our finances have been kept extremely healthy..And I am the CFO and CIO (chief investment officer) of our $$$

prez, If I was your lucky girlfriend, you would be CEO of cleaning toilets. Hey, somebody’s gotta do it, and you boys can be sooo messy.

The upside of that would be that after you’re done, I would write you a nifty little check saying, “pay to the order of futureprez”. If you do a good enough job, you might even be able to get some sex.

marion… seek help. a trained professional? or an online support group dedicated to emotional trouble? someone objective to just talk to… and not a hook up.

i think you’re asking for abuse here. i think you enjoy lashing out. i think you’re angry about things and really need to sort things out.

edit: self actualization comes to mind… get out of the helpless victim mentality and enable yourself to do what needs doing. quit blaming men, your landlord, cuban teenagers, rodents… just do the things that need be done. because helpless jewish princess and modern liberated woman just dont mix…

Rich, I realize you’ve been busy with your life, but discussions of Ron Paul and Marion’s soul are threatening to take over what was a very nice topical blog. Please intervene.

I’ve covered this all before… if people want to post off-topic threads in the off-topic forum, then they are welcome to do so. People who aren’t interested in reading them are welcome to not read them.

Where I will intervene (very reluctantly, because I just don’t have time or interest to police the forums), is when someone habitually drags real-estate related threads off topic. That’s not happening here — this thread, while ridiculous, is its own self-contained thread in the off-topic forum, as are the other threads you mentioned.

This thread has become fodder for the angry, bitter and entitled. I’m sorry, but entitled is what I call it when you think that just by virtue of the appendage that hangs between your legs, you can bully your wife and control all matters concerning finances.

Now, if it’s a joint decision on who handles the finances/ investments between two people in a loving relationship, I see nothing wrong with that. Mutual respect and collaboration is the only way to go.

My approach? Well that’s sort of a combination of my personality and me on two cups of coffee. Deal with it.

The responses are telling. Tg’s responses are pretty much a confirmation. He was nice enough to open up. I enjoyed reading about Svelte’s arrangment, I see what he and his wife have as being a healthy and mutually enjoyable relationship. The way they handle their finances is a pretty good way to go about it, I think.

For those of you who don’t like this thread, why not take Rich’s suggestion and just don’t read it. I think the only thing remotely ridiculous is my approach, which is kinda tongue-in-cheek. I see nothing wrong with the underlying points of discussion.
