How Jennifer Aniston Handles Making 300x More Than Her Boyfriend

Jennifer Aniston is on a $500k-a-week yacht in the Mediterranean with her inspirational speaker boyfriend Jim Curtis. Now, let's be clear, $500k a week is nothing for Jen. She is worth around $320 million. But Jim, he is worth 1 mil. I'm sorry, but if they split that yacht 50/50, he would be missing his rent. He'd be giving motivational speeches about bankruptcy. So how do couples actually handle the wealth gap? Well, I'm Mrs. Dow Jones, Haley Sacks, and here is the answer. Number one, they don't split bills 50/50. They split them based on income. So like if one person makes 90% of the money, they cover 90% of the shared expenses. It's not equal, but it's fair. Rule two: don't make the lower earner stretch to keep up with your lifestyle. If one partner wants the luxury upgrade, like if Jen wants to do the $500k yacht trip instead of a $500 road trip, she covers the difference. You never make the lower earner stretch to keep up with your lifestyle. And three, you never let money = power. So even if one person pays 99% of the bills, relationship decisions stay 50/50. Call it the Ross and Rachel rule. Your relationship status can be complicated, but your money system shouldn't be.
