On this episode of Timeless Wisdom, Dennis Prager explores the concept of fifty to fifty in marriage, where both partners share income and duties equally. He discusses how this approach can lead to tension and resentment, as people start keeping score and expecting each other to do the same tasks. Dennis shares his own thoughts on the matter, arguing that men need to feel a sense of responsibility and ownership in their work and contributions to the household. He also takes calls from listeners, hearing from couples who have tried the fifty to fifty approach and sharing their experiences.
