Thought this was about him being insecure about her making more. After hearing the story, her impulse spending and bad money management is the problem. Him being away in the military doesn’t help. She needs adult supervision.
He is most likely better equipped to be disciplined with money, even if he isn’t he has massive amounts of resources within the military to help with money. It’s not about him joining her team or vice versa. It’s about starting a NEW TEAM together.
It's easy to be "accountable" now that you have enough money to cover your habits. She needs to realize that, from his perspective, that's not accountability. That's fortunate circumstances compensating for a lack of situational awareness. Heather, you are living in different spheres of existence. Time is not progressing at the same rate for you and your husband. Before you talk about "getting him on board" now that you're in such a good position, you need to learn to communicate on his frequency. While he's down range, you've been pursuing your goals, making decisions for you, doing what feels right to you, and not really caring about the repercussions because he's not there a lot. But you've been doing that without enough consideration of the stress and burden he carries just trying to meet you half way in life. Now you've made this huge jump. And if your tone on the phone is any indication of your tone with your husband, there is a, perhaps unintentional, condescending nature that accompanies your newfound success. If you can't address recognize and resolve that within yourself, you're marriage is going to turn toxic. Even if you can't get into couples therapy right away, I recommend going therapy and conveying to your husband that while you would love to go to counseling together, you're at least going to seek counseling to address your own issues in order to be a better wife and partner to him.

As a vet having worked with SF guys I can say that he is doing that cause he has absolutely no trust in her. Trust is everything for those guys. There is more to this story she didn’t tell us.
Before they combine their money, she needs to demonstrate that she’s financially responsible by paying off her debt and saving for at least a year. Then he would probably trust her. This is a trust issue.
Sounds like she spends to much $ and wants his income to shovel out of the mess she made. Making $100k a year is nothing if your boat has a giant hole in it taking on more water.
He’s always judgemental of losers like this “couple” who have seperate finances. I’m taken back by it to. How can you possibly have a marriage without combining something so fundamental to everything
I don't see why Dave doesn't suggest that. It's clear he doesn't want her debt. If her income is so spectacular and his is so little, she could pay her own debt off. Doesn't seem like he's doing bad for someone half their income of their spouse. Interesting how she's the one throwing a fuss.

As Muslims we believe the men are financially responsible and if the woman works then she gets to keep all her money to do as she wants with it. She is not responsible for any of the financial side. I hope he does take some responsibility as a husband but limits it to just what he needs to provide for basic things like food, shelter etc. Also in Islam the woman are responsible for guarding their husbands property which includes his earnings.

Keeping things entirely separate on his part is just as bad in my opinion as her being wasteful when they are both married.
With what he has to deal with in the military and then her impulse buying played a part. She paints it as if it’s his problem but he’s just detached and reacting to her.
Most Special Ops soldiers once finished with selection and training are E7 with decent base pay, housing allowance and special pay, hazardous duty pay, HALO/parachute duty pay....so he has decent income. It is her who let her promotion gets over her head.
They're on the competitive car-buying system. "SHE'S getting a new car, I'M getting a new truck!" It's so common and so stupid for those already in debt.
If she has 90k in student loans. Half her shovel could be going to pay off her debt. Why she is not trying to get rid of her baggage before trying to fix him?

She 100% is the one having trouble with it. She's just projecting it on her husband. She's probably contemplating divorcing him because he's "no longer on her level".
I'll never understand the insecurity that comes with your wife making more money. I can't wait for my wife to make more money for our family. If anything were to happen to me I can take pride in knowing she can support our family.
He doesn't want to combine checking accounts cause she had/has a spending problem. She obviously is trying to be better but he's not there yet with trusting her. They both have debt and they both need to come together and make a budget and pay it off.
I can relate. My fiancé comes from a wealthy family. She is bringing no debt, 30k in savings, and two real estate properties while I’m only bringing a job and 55k in debt. It is hard to get her on board to living on rice and beans when she doesn’t have the issues herself and doesn’t understand. We are not combining finances until we’re married but it’s still difficult now.
It sounds like literally no part of this rested on the "fact" that her husband was jealous of her and likely was more about her husband not trusting her judgement. Now that she finally made some decent money she is just using that as a bludgeon.
That man has seen more than Dave can ever imagine and you're telling HIM to "Man up". You need to be more respectful especially only hearing one side of the story! 💡
Hypergamy goes into full overdrive when situations like this come up unfortunately. Chances of divorce rise exponentially if she makes more and he has less. IIWII
It blows my mind that they have no clue about the others finances. So many people get married without crucial conversations and the marriage ends because of it.
While it's nice to believe in the sanctity of marriage, this lady needs to pay off her own debt with her big new raise. Women are really sweet to you when they want you to pay off THEIR student debt.
Dave: what's your husband do for a living? Caller: he's military Dave: um, OK, what does he do? Caller: he's in the army - I guess he does army stuff? Trying not to judge here but she doesn't care enough to know what her husband does which kind of makes sense how she was convinced to not know what her husband is doing financially. She probably doesn't care to know about her husband's other wife and kids too.
Dave doesn't understand us in the military, we was taught about keeping finances separate along with prenuptial. Yes we pay the regular house bills/food/car payments together. But the savings..thats yours. So if you blow your money on stupid things before you get paid again, so be it..at least the bills are paid and you're up the creek without a paddle. Over and over again by our leadership they preached us this. Its not about religion or no trust, its a protective shield for yourself, for you won't be left out to dry if things go down hill.
But it does matter. A woman doesn’t have a strong enough desire intimacy to justify providing for a man. The male $ex drive is thousands of times more powerful and thus men will tolerate anything to be with a woman.
@@ClaxtonBay123 "Stop talking Bullsht." Isn't that what your mother said to you? Induction motor is correct. Women tend to marry men that make more money than they do for that very reason. This is a fact.
@@tallswede80 You know what’s an actual fact? Here in Australia, a landmark 10 year study revealed that where women earn more in the relationship, 35% can expect to be physically assaulted by their male partner JUST for earning more. Many men have a dangerously warped perception about what a woman’s role should be. Your anecdotal nonsense doesn’t stack up to the rigours of actual, verifiable research.
If the roles were reversed it would somehow still be blamed on the husband. He’d be called a twerp, a loser, a baby, a user, a wimp and numerous other names. Of course, an “are you safe?” would be coming followed by two biblical texts to show how much the man has messed up. DR gets things right most times and I enjoy his advice but this is one of those calls where I want to change the channel.
The way I see it, this woman can lose her job tomorrow and be forced to find a job making LESS. Nothing is permanent. Great, she makes more money than her hubby, but sometimes life gives you lemons, so no need to get cocky about it. Military personnel has a fixed income until they are promoted. Btw, "just infantry" means he signed a blank check that only costs him his LIFE. Thank you for your service, sir.
The title of this video is misleading. Dave's religious beliefs are preventing him from stating the obvious: the husband would have to be nuts to allow her access to his money.
People act like it's the men that have a problem with women earning more, but I've never once heard a man complain about it. In my experience, the woman usually gets a big ego that causes relational problems which she then blames on mens' insecurity. "It's not that I have a problem! Men are just too intimidated by how great I am!" Trust me, men want to date intelligent and successful women. THAT is not the reason they are avoiding you 😂.
It was odd to me that she wanted to combine finances so her husband could make her accountable. I’m going to guess he doesn’t want to babysit her with her money and be the enforcer. She needs to step up and take responsibility and so she can be an adult.
Wow I’m the first one here! Be proud of your accomplishments. My husband makes more than me but I’m sure if the situation was reversed, he would be super happy.
Didn't take but a little digging to figure out she is the problem. Honestly as a retired member of the military myself I think best way to approach this is in terms of a mission and mission planning. Dave has a point if each month is a small mission with the goal of winning the war all the cards are on the table. That means he can see every penny she spends which sound like where his trust issues are. If having physically separated bank accounts makes him feel better that's fine but when you sit down every month to do the budget the banks statements are laid out on the table.
This is easy, if you husband wants everything to remain separate, that’s ok, you just made more money, use your money to clear your debt. And save some for that day when your husband might need your help.. don’t rub it on his face about making more money than him. On his next birthday, surprise him by paying off one of his debts. Love is a thing of the heart, show him more love than he expects.
I see another problem. Dave:What does your husband do? Caller: Hes in the military. Dave: But what does he do? Caller: He’s active duty in the Army. Me: BUT WHAT DOES HE DO? IS HE A MECHANIC, POLICE, COOK, WHAT DOES HE DO? She can’t answer that, she clearly doesn’t care. To me, it almost sounds like she wants to brag about her income, blame the husband for not being happy, and just...ugh. Lack of communication apparently on both sides.
While I was on a combat Deployment my income was more than my Nurse Practitioner wife,I was so proud of that. When I returned and got out the Marines,I had a 40k annual paying job and was going to college full time. My ego was bruised but she reassured me how proud she was of my service and that I’m continuing my education/working. Every man needs that type of support
It's not your money. It's not his money. It should be "our" money. Trust issues can be hard to get past, but I hope these two can work it out. Put everything in writing that might make things easier.
I think Dave was trying to get an idea of the husbands personality traits - special forces vs army nurse vs supply chain probably have some different personality traits.
That's not entirely true. Certain jobs are eligible for additional pay outside of normal bonuses, jump pay, special duty pay, hazard pay, variable special pay, incentive pay. Just to name a few.
As someone else said, she’s not making better money decisions now vs a year ago. She just has more money now to cover her bad decisions. Her question is really about how to avoid paying her own debts. Before her raise, she had an excuse for not paying her debts. And she could ignore them and keep her big spending habits. Now that she makes good money she doesn’t have an excuse, so she wants to combine finances so she can use her husband’s money to pay the debts. And she could keep spending big.
I think its natural for men to feel insecure about making less because men just want to feel they're providing for the family. The society shouldn't be so rough on men for that.
She has a million dollars & still owes $92,000? I wonder about these people’s brains. It just common sense. I’d like to hear his side, she’s probably horrible with money.
If you’re this guy RUN 🏃♂️ Dave gives awful advice when it comes to relationship he takes the woman side 90% of the time and he comes off out of touch using that Christianity bull crap ideology on women who aren’t that. Hearing just how she speaks of the man tells you she doesn’t respect him as a man. Key things she used “I can dig myself out the debt” “ I make double what he makes” “ I make 6 figures” off that it tells you her man likely makes 40-60k the average income and she tears him down for that. I promise you like stats read this marriage ends in her cheating and than playing the I felt a disconnect and my coworker who makes 150k was there for me. Men don’t consume the feminist bull crap because the women who preach it don’t believe it. She underplayed her faults the entire time she doesn’t want to be held accountable I promise you if a big purchase is coming and he wants to go expensive or cheaper she will say i got the money you don’t she will constantly takes shot at his wallet
So, he doesn't want to pay her debt because it would be enabling her shopping habits. She's gotta take responsibility for her debt or else her spending habits won't change.
This is what happens with a lot of people who make a lot of money. You make a lot, you spend a lot. When i get a salary increase I immediately go to my brokerage account and increase my automation strategy. It's the best thing for most people. Don't upgrade your lifestyle!!
This is social media, and the world is watching. If you have personal financial problems go straight to the point don't drag your spouse into it to feel good about yourself. I hate when spouses come online to spread their dirty laundry for the world to see. Let's not forget, it's always one sided situation because we didn't get to hear from the other half. That's my opinion. Spousal issue should be private. So together seek private counselling not coming to social media to make yourself feel good. Imagine the man getting a wind of this made by his wife, he's military, and uniform men don't joke with their pride. No one is perfect, at least protect his pride. What she said today is a recipe for catastrophe.
There's an old Candid Camera clip that dealt with this. The husband was going to divorce wife cuz she made too much money. The lawyer who got pranked with dealing with the papers cried, "If my wife made more than me, I would stay with her forevvverrrr."
Caller: my husband doesn’t want to combine finances. I’m making twice as much as a husband and he’s having a “hard time with it”. Also caller: I’ve made a lot of bad money decisions, racked up debt and am an extremely impulsive spender”. He is much better with money. To any of the men out there, if you are dating or engaged to a woman who talks like this where any criticism is boiled down to “you cannot handle a strong successful woman” run, now. You will be miserable the rest of your life. This is how they absolve themselves of fault by blaming you unable to “handle their success” My wife and I are in our mid 30s with one kid. I make twice as much as she does as an engineer and her as a teacher. She always says she wishes she made more but I always remind her there are benefits of her job that aren’t included in simple income such as great health care and her job allows her to pretty much always be home when our son is. Find a partner who recognizes the contributions you make and doesn’t constantly draw comparisons. Each partner has strengths and weaknesses, marriage is about utilizing each other’s strengths and improving on your weaknesses to win at life as a team!
Red flags 🚩 on her end. *She* has a problem that her husband doesn’t want to help pay her own debt despite the fact that she makes more money and ran up the debt herself. Always read between the lines when someone calls and immediately puts the blame on the other person who doesn’t have a chance to make their case on the show as well. Also, once again Dave is soft on women who make bad financial decisions, and harsh on men who do same, or he tells those women’s husbands to “man up!”. Smh.
I've got some different advice - husband should walk away from this marriage. And if he is genuinely special forces I would be surprised if he is making $50k a year - probably a lot more.
Women because they naturally want to be protected financially and physically. When it comes to provision Women want to be provided for. Sooner or later her hypergamy would kick in
Men who’s precious ego utterly depends on being the dominant top dog in the relationship, they’re the ones who care. They become unstable when this role is challenged in any way. Unfortunately, there’s far too many such men.
I prefer to be with a man who earns more because I want to have a family and raise my own kids. I don’t want strangers in daycare raising them, I had terrible experiences of my own and wish my mom gave up her receptionist job to actually raise me (honestly she shouldn’t have had kids). I want a man who can provide for a family to give us the best chance possible of stable children. If children aren’t involved the relationship between two adults doesn’t impact society as much. If kids are involved, that impacts society because if those kids aren’t raised right, well that’s why things are the way they are today.
Mr Dave needs to stop telling this guy to man up. He doesn't know the full story. He just immediately made an uninformed judgement call. Fully disappointed in his advice, but kudos on the gift.
He is military. She wants him to find her accountable. He doesn't want to babysit. Therr is a budget -follow it. Sounds like she has a pattern of not doing it. No one wants to raise another child. He has checked out. He doesn't need more stress. Wrong or right.
Thought this was about him being insecure about her making more. After hearing the story, her impulse spending and bad money management is the problem. Him being away in the military doesn’t help. She needs adult supervision.

I'll never understand the insecurity that comes with your wife making more money. I can't wait for my wife to make more money for our family. If anything were to happen to me I can take pride in knowing she can support our family.

How about if she out earns you? Is the feeling the same? Is the marriage the same at that point?
Seriously. I hope she makes so much I can quit!

He doesn't want to combine checking accounts cause she had/has a spending problem. She obviously is trying to be better but he's not there yet with trusting her. They both have debt and they both need to come together and make a budget and pay it off.
Lets hear from him before judging
She stopped only recently. A year ago. I think she could start by showing that she’s responsible for the next year
I can relate. My fiancé comes from a wealthy family. She is bringing no debt, 30k in savings, and two real estate properties while I’m only bringing a job and 55k in debt. It is hard to get her on board to living on rice and beans when she doesn’t have the issues herself and doesn’t understand. We are not combining finances until we’re married but it’s still difficult now.
It sounds like literally no part of this rested on the "fact" that her husband was jealous of her and likely was more about her husband not trusting her judgement. Now that she finally made some decent money she is just using that as a bludgeon.
Having a hard time with it only because you keep reminding him...
Exactly, she sounds incredibly arrogant.
That man has seen more than Dave can ever imagine and you're telling HIM to "Man up". You need to be more respectful especially only hearing one side of the story! 💡
Hypergamy goes into full overdrive when situations like this come up unfortunately. Chances of divorce rise exponentially if she makes more and he has less. IIWII
Id hate to know I banged a spec opts wife...
I'm starting not to beilieve in most of Dave's titles for these videos.
Did she say $200 tooth paste? 🤔🤦🏽♂️
Does she have dentures?
She goes for toothpaste and then spends $200 on other things.
@@anniealexander9616 that makes more sense lol
It blows my mind that they have no clue about the others finances. So many people get married without crucial conversations and the marriage ends because of it.

While it's nice to believe in the sanctity of marriage, this lady needs to pay off her own debt with her big new raise. Women are really sweet to you when they want you to pay off THEIR student debt.
Kind of like a mouse behaving to be let out of a mouse trap.
Dave: what's your husband do for a living?
Caller: he's military
Dave: um, OK, what does he do?
Caller: he's in the army - I guess he does army stuff?
Trying not to judge here but she doesn't care enough to know what her husband does which kind of makes sense how she was convinced to not know what her husband is doing financially. She probably doesn't care to know about her husband's other wife and kids too.
Dave doesn't understand us in the military, we was taught about keeping finances separate along with prenuptial. Yes we pay the regular house bills/food/car payments together. But the savings..thats yours. So if you blow your money on stupid things before you get paid again, so be it..at least the bills are paid and you're up the creek without a paddle. Over and over again by our leadership they preached us this. Its not about religion or no trust, its a protective shield for yourself, for you won't be left out to dry if things go down hill.
The way that she talks is the biggest red flag
If you both love each other, it really shouldn't matter if any one person make more money.
But it does matter. A woman doesn’t have a strong enough desire intimacy to justify providing for a man. The male $ex drive is thousands of times more powerful and thus men will tolerate anything to be with a woman.

"Stop talking Bullsht."
Isn't that what your mother said to you?
Induction motor is correct. Women tend to marry men that make more money than they do for that very reason. This is a fact.
@@tallswede80 You know what’s an actual fact? Here in Australia, a landmark 10 year study revealed that where women earn more in the relationship, 35% can expect to be physically assaulted by their male partner JUST for earning more. Many men have a dangerously warped perception about what a woman’s role should be. Your anecdotal nonsense doesn’t stack up to the rigours of actual, verifiable research.
If the roles were reversed it would somehow still be blamed on the husband. He’d be called a twerp, a loser, a baby, a user, a wimp and numerous other names. Of course, an “are you safe?” would be coming followed by two biblical texts to show how much the man has messed up.
DR gets things right most times and I enjoy his advice but this is one of those calls where I want to change the channel.
Separate but unequal doesn't work in marriage.
The way I see it, this woman can lose her job tomorrow and be forced to find a job making LESS. Nothing is permanent. Great, she makes more money than her hubby, but sometimes life gives you lemons, so no need to get cocky about it. Military personnel has a fixed income until they are promoted. Btw, "just infantry" means he signed a blank check that only costs him his LIFE. Thank you for your service, sir.
The title of this video is misleading. Dave's religious beliefs are preventing him from stating the obvious: the husband would have to be nuts to allow her access to his money.
People act like it's the men that have a problem with women earning more, but I've never once heard a man complain about it.
In my experience, the woman usually gets a big ego that causes relational problems which she then blames on mens' insecurity.
"It's not that I have a problem! Men are just too intimidated by how great I am!"
Trust me, men want to date intelligent and successful women. THAT is not the reason they are avoiding you 😂.
It was odd to me that she wanted to combine finances so her husband could make her accountable. I’m going to guess he doesn’t want to babysit her with her money and be the enforcer. She needs to step up and take responsibility and so she can be an adult.
Wow I’m the first one here! Be proud of your accomplishments. My husband makes more than me but I’m sure if the situation was reversed, he would be super happy.

At different times in our marriage we have both made more money than the other. We always just pool our money together and that has worked for 36 yrs.
She controls everything that's what make him powerless as a man.
Didn't take but a little digging to figure out she is the problem. Honestly as a retired member of the military myself I think best way to approach this is in terms of a mission and mission planning. Dave has a point if each month is a small mission with the goal of winning the war all the cards are on the table. That means he can see every penny she spends which sound like where his trust issues are. If having physically separated bank accounts makes him feel better that's fine but when you sit down every month to do the budget the banks statements are laid out on the table.
She should just keep the money separate and quiet. Pay off debts then save in to a pension by direct debits. He doesn't need the unnecessary stress.
You can tell she's let go of taking care of herself. When one focuses on someone else, they lose touch with their own quality of life.
Tell him to count his blessings.
My wife doesn't even work
She doesn't sound supportive of his choice in profession or the lifestyle that comes with being a military wife.
As soon as she started stumbling with her husband is AD in the Army I thought yeah, steel magnolia.
This is why you combine $ from the very beginning. Then you don’t have to have arguments or resentments.
This is easy, if you husband wants everything to remain separate, that’s ok, you just made more money, use your money to clear your debt. And save some for that day when your husband might need your help.. don’t rub it on his face about making more money than him. On his next birthday, surprise him by paying off one of his debts. Love is a thing of the heart, show him more love than he expects.
Never ever the women’s fault, always the mans fault with Dave. “Not manning up, throwing wife in ditch.” Very absurd and far reaching comments Dave.
I see another problem.
Dave:What does your husband do?
Caller: Hes in the military.
Dave: But what does he do?
Caller: He’s active duty in the Army.
Me: BUT WHAT DOES HE DO? IS HE A MECHANIC, POLICE, COOK, WHAT DOES HE DO?
She can’t answer that, she clearly doesn’t care. To me, it almost sounds like she wants to brag about her income, blame the husband for not being happy, and just...ugh. Lack of communication apparently on both sides.
While I was on a combat Deployment my income was more than my Nurse Practitioner wife,I was so proud of that. When I returned and got out the Marines,I had a 40k annual paying job and was going to college full time. My ego was bruised but she reassured me how proud she was of my service and that I’m continuing my education/working. Every man needs that type of support
probably becauss she gives him a hard time.
It's not your money. It's not his money. It should be "our" money. Trust issues can be hard to get past, but I hope these two can work it out. Put everything in writing that might make things easier.

So if he was just "infantry" , dave was ready to call him a goob..
Surprisingly, for dave, he turned out to be better.. lol
As soon as she said he was in the military Dave wasn't going to say anything negative about him.
Military doesn't pay by the occupation. It pays by rank. Dave showed his knowledge.
I think Dave was trying to get an idea of the husbands personality traits - special forces vs army nurse vs supply chain probably have some different personality traits.
That's not entirely true. Certain jobs are eligible for additional pay outside of normal bonuses, jump pay, special duty pay, hazard pay, variable special pay, incentive pay. Just to name a few.
@@twiWright25 That's outside base pay. It's similar to getting a performance bonus at a civilian. It's addition to under certain met circumstances.
@@arthrodea I suppose you could say that. The title implies otherwise but later on he discusses a special forces personality.
@@kalabash72 I never said it was tied to base pay.
As someone else said, she’s not making better money decisions now vs a year ago. She just has more money now to cover her bad decisions.
Her question is really about how to avoid paying her own debts.
Before her raise, she had an excuse for not paying her debts. And she could ignore them and keep her big spending habits.
Now that she makes good money she doesn’t have an excuse, so she wants to combine finances so she can use her husband’s money to pay the debts. And she could keep spending big.
I think its natural for men to feel insecure about making less because men just want to feel they're providing for the family. The society shouldn't be so rough on men for that.
She has a million dollars & still owes $92,000? I wonder about these people’s brains. It just common sense. I’d like to hear his side, she’s probably horrible with money.
Hypergamy for ya. I'd love to hear his side. I'm sure she is sweet as pie and not a dictator what so ever.
Dave you're telling a SF guy to man up?

He should keep the finances separate until her debt is paid off

Husband: google divorce attorney in my area

If you’re this guy RUN 🏃♂️ Dave gives awful advice when it comes to relationship he takes the woman side 90% of the time and he comes off out of touch using that Christianity bull crap ideology on women who aren’t that. Hearing just how she speaks of the man tells you she doesn’t respect him as a man. Key things she used “I can dig myself out the debt” “ I make double what he makes” “ I make 6 figures” off that it tells you her man likely makes 40-60k the average income and she tears him down for that. I promise you like stats read this marriage ends in her cheating and than playing the I felt a disconnect and my coworker who makes 150k was there for me. Men don’t consume the feminist bull crap because the women who preach it don’t believe it. She underplayed her faults the entire time she doesn’t want to be held accountable I promise you if a big purchase is coming and he wants to go expensive or cheaper she will say i got the money you don’t she will constantly takes shot at his wallet
So, he doesn't want to pay her debt because it would be enabling her shopping habits. She's gotta take responsibility for her debt or else her spending habits won't change.
This is what happens with a lot of people who make a lot of money. You make a lot, you spend a lot. When i get a salary increase I immediately go to my brokerage account and increase my automation strategy. It's the best thing for most people. Don't upgrade your lifestyle!!
I would like to hear both sides of this story and then figure out the truth
The past decisions are causing the stress, gotta get on the same page.
This is social media, and the world is watching. If you have personal financial problems go straight to the point don't drag your spouse into it to feel good about yourself. I hate when spouses come online to spread their dirty laundry for the world to see. Let's not forget, it's always one sided situation because we didn't get to hear from the other half. That's my opinion. Spousal issue should be private. So together seek private counselling not coming to social media to make yourself feel good. Imagine the man getting a wind of this made by his wife, he's military, and uniform men don't joke with their pride. No one is perfect, at least protect his pride. What she said today is a recipe for catastrophe.
Yeah I feel bad for her husband
I wouldnt want to combine my income with her.
There's an old Candid Camera clip that dealt with this. The husband was going to divorce wife cuz she made too much money. The lawyer who got pranked with dealing with the papers cried, "If my wife made more than me, I would stay with her forevvverrrr."
Caller: my husband doesn’t want to combine finances. I’m making twice as much as a husband and he’s having a “hard time with it”.
Also caller: I’ve made a lot of bad money decisions, racked up debt and am an extremely impulsive spender”. He is much better with money.
To any of the men out there, if you are dating or engaged to a woman who talks like this where any criticism is boiled down to “you cannot handle a strong successful woman” run, now. You will be miserable the rest of your life. This is how they absolve themselves of fault by blaming you unable to “handle their success”
My wife and I are in our mid 30s with one kid. I make twice as much as she does as an engineer and her as a teacher. She always says she wishes she made more but I always remind her there are benefits of her job that aren’t included in simple income such as great health care and her job allows her to pretty much always be home when our son is. Find a partner who recognizes the contributions you make and doesn’t constantly draw comparisons. Each partner has strengths and weaknesses, marriage is about utilizing each other’s strengths and improving on your weaknesses to win at life as a team!

Me and my wife have separate accounts but both know exactly what each other has. It just works for us.
He’s rightly scared of hypergamy
Red flags 🚩 on her end. *She* has a problem that her husband doesn’t want to help pay her own debt despite the fact that she makes more money and ran up the debt herself.
Always read between the lines when someone calls and immediately puts the blame on the other person who doesn’t have a chance to make their case on the show as well.
Also, once again Dave is soft on women who make bad financial decisions, and harsh on men who do same, or he tells those women’s husbands to “man up!”. Smh.
I've got some different advice - husband should walk away from this marriage. And if he is genuinely special forces I would be surprised if he is making $50k a year - probably a lot more.

Women because they naturally want to be protected financially and physically. When it comes to provision Women want to be provided for. Sooner or later her hypergamy would kick in
Men who’s precious ego utterly depends on being the dominant top dog in the relationship, they’re the ones who care. They become unstable when this role is challenged in any way. Unfortunately, there’s far too many such men.
@@mickmash-5192 you sound silly.
I prefer to be with a man who earns more because I want to have a family and raise my own kids. I don’t want strangers in daycare raising them, I had terrible experiences of my own and wish my mom gave up her receptionist job to actually raise me (honestly she shouldn’t have had kids). I want a man who can provide for a family to give us the best chance possible of stable children. If children aren’t involved the relationship between two adults doesn’t impact society as much. If kids are involved, that impacts society because if those kids aren’t raised right, well that’s why things are the way they are today.

Mr Dave needs to stop telling this guy to man up. He doesn't know the full story. He just immediately made an uninformed judgement call. Fully disappointed in his advice, but kudos on the gift.
He is military. She wants him to find her accountable. He doesn't want to babysit. Therr is a budget -follow it. Sounds like she has a pattern of not doing it. No one wants to raise another child. He has checked out. He doesn't need more stress. Wrong or right.
I thought this happens only in my country
