Firstly if they are married it doesn't matter, secondly the bet was likely friendly. Thirdly the rush from being right after all those years is worth it

Inflation still occurs if you're married.

Dont know why you gotta gesture like a broad but okay.

Edit: turns out it's not ubiquitous to have a shared account

But they probably have a shared account

They also probably have a personal account that they can use as a discretionary fund for whatever they individually want to do.

Idk man, I'm married and we don't have a shared bank account. Shared cards, sure. I guess it's hard to make broad, sweeping generalizations - other than that inflation happens regardless.

Oh, not something I looked into much personally. I just knew my parents shared an account and didn't think more into it. Edited the comment, nice to learn something random

You fixed the first one not the second btw

Our usual has been 100 Argentinian pesos. The token actually exists, even though I'm doing way better than my wife.

The value has plummeted since we started.
