The Clever Girls Know Podcast With Bola Sokunbi
New Book - Clever Girl Millionaire;
Managing money in a relationship is always a controversial topic.
Should you use joint bank accounts, keep everything separate, or try a mix of both?
On this episode, I am sharing the truth about navigating finances when you are in a committed relationship or married—including the system that works for my husband and me.
We are diving into the hidden work of managing a household budget, the "mental load" of finances, and why trying to split things exactly 50/50 is often a recipe for disaster.
Whether you earn more than your partner, juggle the invisible workload, or are trying to get your spouse on board with investing, this playbook is for you.
What I discussed:
Love is not a financial plan—teamwork is!
Let's build a money system that works for your house, not anyone else's expectations.
