Read quite a few threads recently about some kind of financial abuse where women's partners hold all the purse strings, have the house in their name etc while the women have taken pay cuts as sahms, never got married, done poorly paid work for family businesses, no pension. Then there's the other stories of cocklodgers or men taking the piss and expecting to be kept!!
I'm so shocked by these stories and can't understand how people can get to that point of being so financially vulnerable while these b*stards hold all the cards and take advantage.
I wish there was more financial education out there, particularly for women, on how to avoid this and maintain some level of financial independence/ security to protect themselves from these money obsessed arseholes - there seem to be a lot of then around.
