Summary


We’re joined by our favorite financial BFF Zach Abraham from Bulwark Capital Management for a wild “Am I the A**hole?” segment straight from Reddit — and this one’s all about money and marriage. A wife secretly pockets her salon tips after her husband puts them on a strict $150 monthly spending limit. Is she the bad guy, or is he being controlling?
We dig into financial trust, joint accounts vs. separate accounts, and why secrecy and control can destroy a marriage faster than bad credit. Zach shares real-world insights from his clients (and his own marriage) about teamwork, transparency, and how couples can talk money without fighting.

And it's about a woman who has, she's got this weird setup in her marriage where her husband has recently decided we need to save

of our earnings in and then each of us can have 150 bucks a month to spend on what we want. For her,

that's not nearly enough. So on the down low, she has been pocketing the tips that she makes from her salon,

which is like a set, she cuts hair a couple times a week.

0:43.5

She's saving the tips from that secretly so that she can buy more stuff with that.

0:48.8

And she's not including that into their shared bucket.

0:51.8

So she's asking Reddit, does that make me an asshole?

1:21.4

from the ladies.

1:22.6

But my first thought when I hear that is like any husband that thinks that we need the same amount

1:30.8

of spendable money per month. I would just, I got to guess this cat isn't 30 years old yet.

1:36.2

I'm also going to guess that they haven't been married for very long. So I would just sit there
