When it comes to household finances, does it really matter who brings home more money – and how it’s used to provide?
In this episode of On the Money, marriage and family counsellor Dr Bakhe Dlamini joins Old Mutual’s Head of Financial Education, John Manyike, to unpack how cultural and religious expectations can influence the way couples think about their financial roles.
From the tension that can arise when a woman earns more than her partner to challenging the idea that providing is solely a man’s responsibility, Dr Bakhe shares his perspective on why traditional expectations can create friction for South African couples.
Every relationship is different, and this thought-provoking conversation takes a deeper look to help you find a financial approach that works for you as a couple.
On the Money is Old Mutual’s financial education podcast, where public figures and everyday people share their real stories about money – the good, the bad, and the unexpected.
