To all financially independent women, what do you typically do with your money?
Unlike men, women(specially unmarried ) have no financial responsibilities or pressure from society and family to achieve financial and career success before marriage in order to secure a prosperous life partner. Also unlike men, there is no need to be meticulously save every penny for years just to afford a car or own house to ensure a comfortable life for the family in the future.
Tbh, sometimes I envy the freedom and choices you working females have to spend your own money as you please without any financial reponsibilities.
Not sure why ppl assume women have no financial responsibility
Wondering if this is a compliment or an insult 🤔
Same
Insult only
We have expectations from ourselves and don’t want to depend/expect home/car from our own family or future partner. We have EMIs to pay and plans to buy home/car and whatever we want. If you know more & more girls are preferring to stay single these days so obviously nobody is going to come and support them financially or so in present or future.
Again as i mentioned in one of the comments - it's a choice for women whether to take that responsibility on your own. Your future will be fine even if you have saved nothing even after earning(except you planned to stay single all your life). Men don't have that choice, they have to be prosperous to get a good life partner and they have to plan finance from the beginning to ensure their family's comfortable life.
Financial responsibilities differ for both men and women. And it's equally difficult for both.
As a male - I contributed 8L of my savings to my parents when they built their house. I paid 4 years of rent before that. I also pay for household groceries for past 3 years. All this including my own expenses and rent. And I don't have generational wealth. Now, I have another friend (a guy) who's parents gave him a land and house for his marriage and he is living there. He has the luxury of avoiding responsibility, but I can't.
As a female - A friend of mine, she earns and pays for her sister's education and takes care of her grandparents. She doesn't have parents. She's been spending for her sister and her grandparents for the past 6 years. Another friend of mine (female); she got married to a wealthy guy and got settled in UAE. Even her parents paid for everything before marriage despite the fact she worked with us. This woman can afford the luxury of having no responsibility while the other friend couldn't.
Let's me be honest, if I had the luxury of having no responsibilities I would take it in a heartbeat. Who would want to bear the grunt of paying debt. Alas, we all come from different background. So let's not judge or stereotype and let's live and let live.
Who said this women don't have responsibilities. Kaise generalise karte yaar log . Ask women who are 2 sisters or have more age gaps . You will know the truth.
The working women folk have to fight against ticking clock of 30plus age wherein the society declares them too old to be marriage material, on other hand 35 plus uncles as grooms are increasingly common.
Post marriage its expected for womenfolk to bear home responsibilities as priority but no such thing in case of men. So a girl bearing financial responsibilities also has this unfair battle to face. I am male, just a fair observation.

I know a girl invested all her money in stock market, tried F&O and lost money. Just stating some facts. Parents are well off to do, and are still earning.
The concept of money was never to accumulate but it was to work. Rather in current time, we have concept of retirement by that logic rich people should never have worked ever in their life.
I do help in groceries at times /buy them birthday presents/dine out bills/ my cousin's coaching fees and she is pursuing CA, so her classes and books cost/...
Invest to build a corpus that has to be out-earned by the prospective hypergamy groom.
What you just said is a fact but exceptions are always there
