In English, private money is called "egg money" or "pocket money". "Egg money" refers to the money accumulated by peasant women selling eggs. And "pocket money" refers to the money that women in the city save from the family expenses given by their husbands every month. In the old days, women were afraid of losing money when they bought food, so they pinned their money on their skirts with pins, hence the name "private money".
Explanation:
When the economic status of men is obviously higher than that of women, and marriage becomes the material basis for women's survival, it is self-evident that money can bring women a sense of security. Therefore, there is a system of compensation for breach of contract within marriage and payment of maintenance. Before the 1930s, 47 of the 48 states in the United States stipulated compensation for broken marriages.
In marriage, if one party earns more money for the family than the other, it is easy for the one who earns more money to have more control over the money or more freedom. The one who earns less money may feel that his value is lower and give up equal rights in family finance.
The statement "money and * * *" is sometimes inaccurate, because both the initial "private money" and the later "AA" system show that the * * * of marriage is more or less separated from each other.
In a sense, the way of "going Dutch" is to make one's own "private money" explicit and clearly distinguish between "you" and "me" in the use and ownership of money. Although it is very beneficial for everyone to have some disposable money, too much emphasis on independent "you" and "me" may be detrimental to the maintenance of our relationship. It's hard to say that two people with completely independent economies feel more secure in marriage.
For the first time, private money just didn't want to be known, so I kept it for later use.
This does not mean that private money is not good. In marriage and family, sometimes private money may solve the urgent need more or less in the difficult period of the family.
