I remember doing a story about the age-long practice of how in Japan, husbands surrender their whole earnings to their wives.
In turn, they are given what they call ‘Okozukai’, meaning pocket money. And that pocket money was mostly for beer and cigarettes.

That’s the kind of lifestyle ace comedian, Dr Helen Paul tried proposing a few days ago, though this time, it’s the reverse.
Dr Paul stirred up an intense debate on social media with her post suggesting that women’s salaries should be directly transferred into their husbands’ bank accounts. In this age? Sure, there are couples who keep their finances together and it works well for them. But I doubt it will work for families where the men keep side chicks or mistresses. The woman of the house will suffer in this case.
Of course, you can easily tell those who would be for, or against that debate topic. Let’s read some of the reactions.
