  • My wife and I keep our finances separate too.

    Except we both send money to an account that’s in my name offsetting the mortgage on the house that’s in my name too. My wife wants access to this account because she’s worried if I die the bank will make it hard to get at the cash since it’s offset and joint savings all in one.

    Not to mention we don’t have wills and she’s been pushing for that for a few years.

    The more I think about it, she might be planning on killing me haha



  • Yeah 10 years ago a qualified tradesmen in my industry was paid average 45 an hour, now that same level of experience is about 48 an hour.

    In that time the cheap bread went from 50 cents to 3 dollars.

    I told my boss I would need a raise years ago when bread went to 85 cents he laughed.

    I struggled like fuck as an apprentice then thought I was doing well, now days I couldn’t imagine being an apprentice living on your own etc.
