You can pay like a monthly subscription that 501 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 8: kind of covers those fees, or you can pay as 502 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 8: you go, But all of the platforms have different percentages, 503 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 8: which is why it is so important to your own 504 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 8: research and why we are so quick to say there's 505 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 8: no one platform for everybody. So have a look around, 506 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 8: have a look at the features you want, because not 507 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 8: all of the platforms have those fun features. So we've round 508 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 8: up to something that's important to you. Make sure that 509 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 8: that's available on whatever you want to use. But yeah, 510 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 8: it's going to very place to place, and it really 511 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 8: depends on if you want an easy to use app. 512 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 5: Or if you want something really fancy. 513 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 8: Because you want something fancy, chare Y's is very simple, 514 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 8: which is why I chose it when I was starting out, 515 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 8: Whereas if you want heaps of reports and big fancy things, 516 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 8: I'm not one of those girlies. 517 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 2: I might just keep going for both. 518 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 4: So, as you guys know, I do invest on chair zas, 519 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 4: but I also do love a little bit more of 520 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 4: a complex platform sometimes just because I like the research 521 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 4: and the insights. 522 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: But she did specifically men micro. 523 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 4: Investing, which I think is worth talking about because you 524 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 4: technically micro invest Jess on the Chaza's platform, So you 525 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 4: are taking small amounts of money and investing them with 526 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 4: shares's right, and you use the roundup feature, and it 527 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 4: all makes sense that feature is also on platforms like 528 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 4: Rays and like Spaceship, which are incredibly popular within our community. However, 529 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 4: those are more i would say true micro investing platforms 530 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 4: where Jess, you got to pick your ETF that you're 531 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 4: investing into. You have a lot more control over your portfolio, 532 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 4: and it's still just as accessible as the quote micro 533 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 4: investing apps. But I think I've said it before, I 534 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 4: love micro investing app. It's like the gate raad drug 535 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 4: of investing because you don't feel overwhelmed when you start right, 536 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 4: Like you can just do a few dollars here and there, 537 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 4: you can download the app. It's all really shiny and easy. However, 538 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 4: once you get to a solid amount of money, you 539 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 4: find that most people want to see down their micro 540 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 4: investing app and go over to a quote real investing 541 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 4: app to have a bit more control because that is 542 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 4: going to take you all the way through to retirement. 543 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 4: So if I use you as an example, which I'm 544 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 4: really glad I have you to use this example of 545 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 4: you're not going to need to leave Shares's for your 546 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,239 Speaker 4: entire life, Like if you decided right, Shares's is it. 547 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 4: I've picked my two ETFs only, No, you've got two 548 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 4: because I look at your portfolio two, so Perby. 549 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: I'm like, what what you got, Gabby, what's in there? 550 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 2: Show me? 551 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 4: But I think it's important to understand that a Shares's 552 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 4: platform is a little bit more scalable, whereas something like 553 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 4: a micro investing platform that to me is dipping your 554 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 4: toes in the water and getting a little bit comfortable 555 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 4: with it, and you might progress to a bigger platform. 556 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 4: The fees should be relatively comparable in saying that you 557 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 4: are always going to be paying more fees on lower 558 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 4: amounts because the same transactions have to occur on a 559 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 4: dollar versus one thousand dollars. Right, You've got your brokerage, 560 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 4: you have transaction fees, you might have app or administration fees, 561 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 4: and all of those things are reasonable. That's why it's 562 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 4: probably worth jumping into our Facebook community and understanding what 563 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 4: are other people in our community using? 564 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 2: What apps? Could I look at? 565 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 4: Have a look at our investing guide that's on our website, 566 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 4: go back to our investing series that we did on 567 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 4: the podcast a couple of months or even probably a 568 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 4: year ago. With shares these I think those things are 569 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 4: really important to understand, because if you want to start small, 570 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,479 Speaker 4: you don't necessarily just have to go for micro investing 571 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 4: platforms anymore. But be aware that the fees at the 572 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 4: very start are going to feel in percentage terms, a 573 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 4: lot higher. But for me, that's an investment into your 574 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 4: financial literacy, because even if you're paying two dollars fifty 575 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 4: a month and you're investing ten dollars that twenty five percent. 576 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 2: That's a lot. 577 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 4: But look what you're learning, Look what's compounding, Look where 578 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 4: the growth is coming from, not just necessarily in terms 579 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 4: of making money, but in terms of your growth mindset 580 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 4: and putting you know yourself first. So when money starts 581 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 4: to compound, you're in the best possible position, and you 582 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 4: kind of have to start there. But once you get 583 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 4: to having a bigger portfolio, like I know you do, Gabby, 584 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 4: and I know you do, Jess, and I'm pretty sure 585 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 4: you do too, Brook, because you're like a little investing queen. 586 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 2: You you're a bit of an investing bro. 587 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 4: Though I do I don't want to talk to her 588 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 4: on the podcast about what she invests in because she 589 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 4: consistently offends me. 590 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 7: However, I don't I have no money in crypto you 591 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 7: said the other day. 592 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 5: I didn't pick up on that. 593 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 2: I thought you were serious portfolio. Say how did you 594 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 2: pick your portfolio? Side note? 595 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 7: I went through due diligence, like I went on many 596 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 7: a Reddit for I'm a lover of Reddit. Oh yeah, 597 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 7: Reddit reliable, because I want to see what everyone else 598 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 7: is investing in. 599 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 6: And then I actually did like weeks of research. 600 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 7: I googled every like diversified fine ETF because I knew 601 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 7: that was the best way to go. Yes, and then 602 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 7: I went through and clarified what I wanted, and then 603 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 7: I diversified again because I was panicked. 604 00:24:58,080 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 6: I don't want to be I love this. 605 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 4: That was a very cheese on the money answer. Thanks, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 606 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 4: I like it. And I know that Jess and Gabby are 607 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,959 Speaker 4: the same. But once you have those bigger portfolios, you're 608 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 4: aiming for about one percent in fees, Like anything under 609 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 4: one percent, sleigh, anything above one percent, you kind of go, 610 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 4: what could I be doing differently? Is that the platform 611 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 4: is that the ETF. You also have to be very 612 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 4: aware that an ETF is going to have fees and 613 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 4: the platform is going to have fees, So there are 614 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 4: going to be fees coming from two places, and you 615 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 4: need to consider that. 616 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 2: That is not me warning you, oh my gosh, their fees, 617 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 2: don't do it. 618 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 4: Just be clear on what it is, because obviously from 619 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 4: little things, big things grow. You've heard this said a 620 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 4: million times on the podcast. 621 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 2: But I do. 622 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 4: Genuinely believe that it's an investment into your education. And 623 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 4: if you start worrying about fees really really early, like 624 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 4: I said in my very first book, if you pay peanuts, 625 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 4: you're going to get monkeys. So you want to be 626 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 4: investing in something that makes sense for you, that is scalable, 627 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 4: not necessarily going what's the cheapest option. 628 00:25:59,240 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely. 629 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 3: I think for me, like personally, I'm still in a 630 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 3: very beginner phase of my investing journey and I would 631 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 3: still consider myself micro investing. 632 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 4: How are you doing that? Do you have a micro 633 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 4: investing platform on race space? 634 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 3: She shares E is, And I'm just investing small amounts 635 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 3: monthly from my pay which obviously a dollar doesn't stretch 636 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 3: as far as it did. 637 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 2: A year ago, not in America at least, no. 638 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 3: But like you, sav, I have found like just wrapping 639 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 3: my head around the statements and. 640 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 5: All of that really really helpful. 641 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: And I think like you say the education you get 642 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 3: from doing it is really really important, and even though 643 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 3: you don't see massive returns at one point, and I'm 644 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 3: as page as like as it gets with investing, I'm 645 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 3: just in ETFs, the boring ETFs actually really that I 646 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 3: did know that. Yeah, so I think that I'm a 647 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 3: very basic investor. But I do think the education I'm 648 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 3: getting from that is really really good. And I didn't 649 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 3: know the one percent things. So I'm happy I'm sitting 650 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 3: here and about where my fee should be going. 651 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, hold on, sleigh, sleigh A, we gotta stay out 652 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: of her alright. 653 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 4: I feel answers the question that is a ten out 654 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 4: of ten. So we have a very spicy DM that 655 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 4: I'm excited to get two new opinions on, mister scree, 656 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 4: Are you ready to hear it? So here's the DM. Hi, 657 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 4: she's on the money team. Could I please get your advice. 658 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 4: I've been with my fiance for five years and we 659 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 4: are starting to talk about having a family. We both 660 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 4: earn one hundred and ten thousand dollars a year, but 661 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 4: I have less outgoings and also receive bonuses. My issue 662 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 4: is at current I do a majority of the cooking 663 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 4: the cleaning, the groceries, et cetera. But I also contribute 664 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 4: more financially. 665 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 2: I see where this is going. 666 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 4: We split rent fifty to fifty, but I often pay 667 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 4: for groceries, utilities, date nights. And when I bring it 668 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 4: up that I'm paying for a lot of our lifestyle, 669 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 4: my fiance doesn't agree and it becomes really awkward, so 670 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 4: I just drop it. 671 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 2: Now that he's. 672 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 4: Wanting to discuss planning for kids, I really want to 673 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 4: be firm that unless he can cover all of our 674 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 4: bills with his wage, I will not be having children. 675 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 4: I don't think it's fair that I do all of 676 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 4: the extra work and still contribute heavily to bills. He 677 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 4: says he is going to do as much childcare and 678 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 4: housework as me, but based on the last three years, 679 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 4: that just isn't true. 680 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 2: And I'm starting to feel resentful. Please send help. 681 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 5: I feel I don't know. 682 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: No. 683 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 4: I really want their opinions first, Jessica, because they're not say. 684 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 5: You guys, I'm ready. I think I'll start with. 685 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: Mean. 686 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 2: Yours is going to be mean? 687 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 6: Is it's most to be honest? 688 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 5: You're gonna have a blunt delivery. 689 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 3: No, I can't empathize with this situation that much because 690 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 3: I don't have a partner. I've never lived with a partner, 691 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 3: but I can imagine that would be very frustrating if 692 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 3: I was living with a man who wasn't really pulling 693 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 3: his weight and I was contributing more financially and just 694 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 3: to everything around. 695 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 5: I think we're going to have just a unanimous decision here. 696 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: I know where this is going. 697 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 3: Like, I think it's very fair to not want to 698 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 3: have children with someone who clearly isn't aligning with you 699 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 3: in that space. 700 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 5: And I just feel bad for her because that's. 701 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 3: Very frustrating, especially when she's trying to communicate that to him, 702 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 3: and it might be like talking to a bit of 703 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 3: a brick. 704 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 6: Wall, yep. 705 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 7: And she's saying that she doesn't want to have kids 706 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 7: with them if he don't want to do all these things, 707 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 7: but she already has a child. 708 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 6: Them Financially she's doing is cooking and cleaning, like she 709 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 6: already has a child. 710 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 7: Like if your partner is not stepping up now, he's 711 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 7: not going to step up then because it's harder than 712 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 7: you're going to be on less sleep. So it either 713 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 7: there needs to be something that gives like she can't 714 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 7: do everything, She's not wonder woman. 715 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 8: I think it depends on how important having children is 716 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 8: to as well, because if it's something that you're desperate for, 717 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 8: then it's it's not going to work. But if you're 718 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 8: kind of like, oh, like, I don't mind, like my 719 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 8: lifestyle now, I'm happy with it obviously, Like I think 720 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 8: that you should get to a place where you feel 721 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 8: satisfied with the amount that he's contributing. And I think 722 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,719 Speaker 8: that we need to remember that the household chores are 723 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 8: a mental load. Being a stay at home parent or 724 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 8: a stay at home partner is a full time job 725 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 8: in and of itself. Running a household is a job. 726 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 8: If one person is doing all of that labor and 727 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 8: contributing more financially, that's a lot for anybody. 728 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 2: I think I would agree. 729 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 4: I feel like I have to play diplomat here though, 730 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 4: and put on the table that we need to have 731 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 4: some conversations about this. 732 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 5: So let's be honest to be a diplomatic. 733 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I mean, to me, it's a red flag 734 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 4: if you're saying I don't want to have kids with 735 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 4: this man, because I have been in that situation before, 736 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 4: not with my husband, because to be honest, I think 737 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 4: my husband is the best thing that's ever happened in you. 738 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 5: I don't have kids with your husband would be a 739 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 5: bit too late. 740 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 2: He is a bit too late, give me three months. 741 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 4: But it's one of those things where that was what 742 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 4: I was looking for in a partner. I was quite 743 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 4: clear that I wanted someone who was exactly on the 744 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 4: same page as me when it came to just life 745 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 4: and how you divide up tasks and what you do 746 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 4: and what that looks like. And I feel really grateful 747 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 4: for that. But that was very intentional. It's not an 748 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 4: accident that my husband is good at those things. I 749 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 4: didn't train him or anything like that. I just was 750 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 4: very attracted to somebody who was relatively self sufficient and 751 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 4: independent and had their stuff together. But I also think 752 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 4: if your partner's not seeing it the way you are, 753 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 4: we need to do a bit more investigating and go, okay, well, 754 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,479 Speaker 4: let's not have an argument using words like Gabby, you 755 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 4: do this is actually really aggressive. Let's take those conversations 756 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 4: off the table and go, I just feel like this, 757 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 4: how can we explore that a bit more? 758 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 2: What would that mean? 759 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 4: Like you're saying that you're doing fifty to fifty. Why 760 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 4: do I feel that it's not because one thing that 761 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 4: I have learned, and this is not a good thing. Thankfully, 762 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 4: Steve and I don't argue too much, but I have 763 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 4: a very deep belief that you can argue your way 764 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 4: out of anything. 765 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 2: Except you can't tell me how I feel. 766 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 4: So the second I tell you how you feel, I 767 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 4: can't be like, oh, well, Jess, if you feel left 768 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 4: out by that, that's on you. 769 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to go, oh. 770 00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 4: Actually, let's do a little bit of self reflection, if 771 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 4: that makes sense. 772 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 5: I love when you talk psychology to me. That's really good. 773 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 4: It's important though, So like, maybe we can sit down, 774 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 4: maybe we can do a budget. If you feel genuinely 775 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 4: that you're paying more, I'm sorry, but that's actually quite 776 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 4: black and white. 777 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 2: You could print it out and be like, well. 778 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 4: Let's do a budget. Let's actually look at this. What 779 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 4: does your shared finances look like? If you're saying you're 780 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 4: paying more but he's not, maybe there's not actually a 781 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 4: fair division. And if you're saying that this is a 782 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 4: man that you want to have kids with, maybe we 783 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 4: do need to talk about Okay, well, maybe we have 784 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 4: a shared account and you both transfer the same amount 785 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 4: to that shared account, still have completely separate finances, but 786 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 4: there's an agreed amount for bills and for groceries and 787 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,479 Speaker 4: everything that's fifty to fifty. 788 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 2: Maybe that will make you. 789 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 4: Feel a little bit more in control. And then I 790 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 4: think we should also talk about the division of labor, 791 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 4: like if we're talking about who's vacuuming and who's washing up, 792 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 4: and what. 793 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: Does that actually look like. I know that sometimes I go, 794 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 2: oh my god, Jeeve never cleans the bathroom. It's the worst. 795 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 4: Gabby's laughing because she spends a very significant amount of 796 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 4: her time at mine house. That's me with tunnel vision, 797 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 4: because that's just a job that I have elected to do. 798 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 4: There's no division of labor. But Gabby Steve does everything else. 799 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 3: See there's a yes, very domestic goddesses. 800 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 6: He's a perfect heath husband. 801 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,479 Speaker 3: I think it's so hard to like track those things. 802 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 3: Like you say, it's easy with the budgeting because you 803 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 3: can literally sit down and go ABCD, it's black and white. 804 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 3: But then with division of labor, it's like if someone 805 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 3: thinks that they're doing something, it's very hard to take 806 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 3: them out of that. 807 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 5: And like you say, you get tunnel vision. 808 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, and you might have, and I'm not saying 809 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 4: you do it. I don't want to gaslight you into 810 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 4: thinking that you're the problem. You are absolutely not. But 811 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 4: like if I look at it and go we were 812 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 4: having a very isolated conversation and I go, oh, no, 813 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 4: Steve never cleans the bathroom. 814 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 2: That's kind of actually true. 815 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 4: Does that mean that he's a bad person when it 816 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 4: comes to division of labor? No, because everyone on my 817 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 4: team knows he does way more than me.
