Honestly, most days I’m agreeing with what Danielle is saying when it comes to finances, but the most recent episode (13/11/23) when Danielle asks Yohan to pay half the rent, plus bills etc. I think was super unfair. She has an American job, which pays American wages. Yohan is/was working for Dominican wages.
When Yohan said if he contributes the same he will have nothing left for himself. And I agree with him (if these facts are true)
In my personal opinion, I think financial contributions should be split by % of income. My partner (33M) contributes more to our household because he earns more. If I (29F) contribute the same, I wouldn’t have any personal savings or extra money for myself. When I was earning more, I was contributing to the household more. It goes both ways…
I think its hard to support a business that is losing money. Plus, that was his fault because he didn’t sign a lease so his landlord kicked him out. That isn’t on Danielle.
Most new businesses lose money to start. He is an idiot for not signing the lease but not for wanting to do something else to try to make money.
I agree but he also stopped working his personal trainer job so she knew he had 0 income and was trying to start a business, which does involve initial investment. Instead of really helping him, she belittled him.
