In my home, things are structured in a mature way. I wake up at 4 a.m. and start cooking. I also wash plate and do laundry if needed, before waking the children up at 6 a.m. Meanwhile, my husband wakes up between 5 and 5:30 a.m. and helps with sweeping the house. When the children wake up, he takes care of their bath and gets them dressed.
After preparing breakfast, I pack their food and everyone heads off to their respective destinations. I head to the shop between 8 and 8:30 a.m. and return home by 8 p.m. Meanwhile, my husband returns home by 4 p.m. and helps with night cooking and helping the kids with their assignments, except for math.
We have a system where we maintain separate accounts but stay informed about each other's spending. We're both aware of each other's income and expenses, so if one of us makes a purchase without consulting the other, it'll be noticeable. This way, we maintain transparency and trust in our financial decisions.
He helps me with purchasing stocks for my shop. Since he's involved in the financial aspects, I'd need a good reason to splurge without discussing it with him. He's the one who mainly handles the finances, and I support when needed and the arrangement works for us both. The equation balances well🤗
