What Is It About Men And Money?

By Super Admin

Men often complain about women being shopaholic, of being spendthrift, of being demanding etc, but it has been noticed that at the end of the month, women would still be left with their savings while men would have spend it all. At the same time even with the gender equality, men still are the boss of the family and are good at it. Men and money, the relationship have always been a topic of debate. What is it about men and money? Lets see -

1.No Compromise – I once went with one of my friends named Vinay for shopping. He wanted to shop for himself. While I was looking for best deals, he was busy trying out clothes without even looking at the price tag. According to him he would not compromise for something which he has liked. Shopping is a diplomatic art which men often ignore with their 'no compromise' way of looking at life. This 'no compromise' attitude is what hinders the relationship of men and money.

2.Showing Off – Another characteristic of men is to show off money. Men often have the tendency to show off, specially to girls. Be it a dinner together, a birthday gift, a night out, men leave no limit to show off money untouched. They spend like crazy even if the ATM is crying out warnings.

3.Investments – Men are good at investment. Investment is one topic where men and money seem to come to terms. But even in investment most men have the tendency of going for a less duration investment, as want quick returns. Women on the other hand look for longer duration to secure the future. Anyways, men have an inbuilt ability to understand investment and make good decisions.

4.Money Is Their Power – The fourth relation between of men with money is that of power. For women money is an important commodity to meet needs, to fulfill aims and secure future, but for men money is always a second name of power. Men always use money as a prove of success, as a term to determine status and a commodity to impress women. It is a myth that women fall for the bank balance before the person himself. The tip is that to impress a women never be a price tag.

These are the four broad terms in which the topic and relationship of men and money can complied into. Please add on more points.
