MONEY MATTERS

I had a conversation recently with a guy who shared that some women are more concerned about getting money from men as oppose to building relationships. Here is my take on those types of people be it male or female. How you make money is your own choice and if a person is willing to be used then so be it. I personally think it makes more sense to have a partner assist you create your own money opportunities rather than go the easy route by having him hand you c-notes/cash.

 Specifically in love relationships prior to marriage, it seems more wise to invest in creating money for yourself and when/if the mate you are intimate with can increase your wealth by teaching you something or sharing creative endeavors, both parties win. Relationships nowadays seem to be expiring at a quick rate so why bother setting up dependent relationships by persuading him to give you an "allow"ance. He will have strings attached to what he "allows" you to do when money is consistently given to you. Rules come with money given so freely and a portion of your freedom may come with it too. Try the more liberating side...making your own money and having him assist with your business ventures. It is much more liberating to have your own idea, build confidence by starting your own company and have him help network, spread the word, elevate your business sense or be supportive.

When a man takes time to teach you what he has acquired and open up his network to allow you opportunities, it is far greater than him reaching into his pocket and giving you money. I know if he can make time to help me build wealth he and I may be adding to a solid foundation in love if all other things align. They say, money ruins relationships and in many ways the lack of knowledge about money matters can have your relationship struggling! So, do you want to be treated like a child and be given an allowance or grow up and handle your own money affairs?
