Dear working class man with working class partners

A two income household is a powerful one that allows the unit to own more, they usually go further if they both have their head screwed on right. I get all these negativity you see on twitter, some are valid and some are laughable.

You should want your partner to earn more and contribute to the running of the unit, its only natural. whether its 50:50, 80:20, 70:30, its left you as the unit to decide. For a working class household to be successful on a partnership basis, here are a few things i learned in my journey. I'll still learn more.....

GROWTH PERIODS:
- Both of you can't grow at the same time, its only natural for one person to grow.
- For successful households they are the ones who take turns to grow one after the other. In our case, i was the one who started growing faster, so we decided in the baby making phases i would be the one who focused on career growth, i worked hard, relocated to get a better job at some point, while my partner focused on the home front.

So lets take about Personal Finance.

I handle my personal finance like a football team. The aim is to avoid unexpected goals while attaching available wealth building opportunities. So i play a 4-2-4 formation... with 4 core principles in defense 2 in midfield and 4 in attack My defense contains 4 defensive masters... The Galacticos of defenders.

At right back i have BUDGETING. A rule driven Budget that covers daily expenditures, expenses and projects. i budget for all things, Rent, entertainments, giving, blacktax etc

at right Centerback I have INSURANCE. Protection against unforeseen circumstances is a must so i have car, health, home and a Life insurance plan.

at left Centerback is EMERGENCY FUNDS. Raining Day because life Happens​ its mostly 1-3 month's salary

at leftback I have CREDIT MANAGEMENT. Loans are good, they help you build wealth and ownership, defaulting is bad. Pay your loans on time. The rule is never borrow >33% of your income else you will struggle
