Managing Our Money

The “money talk” happened pretty early in our relationship but we had A LOT more to discuss as husband and wife. We talk about how we budget our money, how we save and what sacrifices we had to make for each other when it came to finances - did Mikael really pay for Megan’s debt?
LOADED QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
Is it okay to hide big expenses from your partner rather than fight about it?

Great episode on money and budgeting! Amazing. More and more filipinos need more of this.

I really appreciate the laidback vibe and the openness in discussing money and the shame that comes with overspending. It's a cultural thing for us Filipinos not to discuss finances so openly kasi, "nakakahiya", or "bastos" pag-usapan in public, but I find that talking about it with such honesty and practicality is much more helpful than shying away from it. It seems I've found a new podcast to look forward to!

[@gmailaccount7856]

Finally, a celebrity couple who goes beyond the sweet and parenting stuff. Definitely subscribing!

[@ivanalox539]

Wow! Now I love this couple. Smart, articulate and Mikael very respectful of Maegan even on sensitive topic. I only see them on Instagram and I just know Maegan being a beauty queen, now I am a fan! Like and subscribed. More relationship and financial podcasts please. My husband and I are only 2 years together and no baby yet, hopefully in the future but no pressure. Only pressure from people asking.

Mikael Daez is very manly. He seems to be taking care of Megan very well in all aspects of their relationship. 😊 Sana ako din, i will be well-taken care of like her when the right man comes along. Magpapa-alaga na ako promise. Ang sarap sa feeling ❤️ #relationshipgoals

[@kaorieenriquez3218]

This is nice! Me & my husband also discuss our goals every year and how we achieve them. On your next episode can you discuss how you deal with other people like friends or family members borrowing money? That should be an interesting topic to discuss 🙂

[@Arch-nj7bd]

The smile of mikael when megan explains it well. So proud

[@eloisapantazis6232]

This reminds me of Heart Evangelista’s “Adulting episode with her husband. Chiz talked about budgeting. It was one of Heart’s best vlogs and I really enjoyed this one as well.

[@CupidsEyee]

Wow!!!! Mikael Daez. You are so articulate. I've watched most of podcasts and amaze ako sa diction and lawak ng vocabulary and the super masculine voice mo Mikael. I am more of Megan. I can't express myself to my partner like her. But you always express yourself the way I want to hear it. So smart. Nice couple.

[@eugeniemarvil9924]

I'm still at college but I want to start saving as early as I can for the future and you guys are my inspo 🥺

[@bambipantanosas6641]

I agree with everyone. Mik (I like to call him Mik) is so smart and articulate. It"s very clear that he's responsible, sensible and in control. Such a no-nonsense man. He is a good influence to Megan. Loving your podcast!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@aldenkvn]

I love this couple so much. They are so ideal, yet they try not to make their relationship look one so they show who they are to make everything real, which again, makes it super ideal. ❤️❤️❤️

I'm really bad with my finances and rely on my partner to keep me accountable. This video really helped me realize just how much discipline I lack and how important communication is. I loved how you said "it's a step back for finances but a step forward for your relationship". Really holds a lot of wisdom there. I will remember that. Thank you for your advice and I'm so happy to have discovered your channel today ❤

[@gigiazcuna1799]

I am 52 and I am still learning from these two. Your generation is so lucky to have you both.

[@vanessatan174]

I saw mikael before sa mall sa ortigas, sobrang simple nya, like hindi mo sya makikilala agad kasi sobrang simple nya, he was just wearing jeans and t shirt and back pack. No wonder madami syang ipon kasi he's so simple. I admire his simplicity.

[@whathefudge2402]

I like the flow of your conversations. Very mature at the same time authentic. This is the second podcast topic I listened to both of you. The platform that you’re tackling are real talk conversations and interesting. Keep on creating!

[@qynnana1031]

I love how mikael is so articulate and supports his wife 100%. #relationshipgoals and to think all the expenses is taken from his account and savings goes all to the ladies' account. But then, it must take a lot to be patient to a micromanager husband like that. Kudos to you both❤

[@CharmaineAlmasen]

Favorite couple! ❤️❤️❤️ I noticed your videos improved. Better lighting and may mga animations na! Really amazing. Love you both!

[@vickyd.1185]

My God, Mikael is just like my husband. Very good with money, tall, good looking and super smart 🧠 ❤️ He also helped me with my finances or rather saved me. This is the quality of a man every women should aim for.

[@angelaventura5491]

Or this is the quality of a person we should (men or women) aim for ❤️

[@tgoldberg1997]

Both my mum and partner's mum said never to share income together with my partner, this is due to previous bad experiences (I remember my parents fighting about money issues as a child). So it's very pleasing to hear a healthy and working relationship sharing two accounts for both savings and expenses! Thanks for the vid ^_^

[@claudinegreer8622]

So true. Personal Finance is 10% head knowledge and 80% behavior. If I can control the person that is facing me in the mirror, I would be financially better off!

[@cayf7537]

my husband and I budget the same thing. He pays all the loans and bills while my paycheck goes in our savings. The only thing I pay are my credit card bills. I shoulder our food expenses and eating out and charge it to my credit card. it's a lot easier since we can easily track all our expenses.

[@charmerchan]

Megan explained it clear and easy for everyone afraid of budgeting. It's cute how she made it into such a manageable small amount for everyone to easily grasp and understand. Tapos the way that they divided the amount into each sub-category is realistic too in terms of percentage. Thank you for such amazing informative content!!! We all need more of this in our lives.

[@jezreel-]

Aaaahhhh grabeee! I was smiling and nodding my head the whole time. I’m so glad I found this channel/podcast 😁 Also, you guys make me unafraid of relationships lol sobrang nakakakilig kayo kahit wala naman romantic topic haha but the little things you do for each other, I can see the look of appreciation everytime one of you talks 😍 More blessings to you! You guys deserve so much more. Hoping for your success, Mr. and Mrs. Daez!! ❤️

[@momshielp453]

I didn’t expect to be inspired by your video, just run into it, and as a young couple discussing all of this matters it opened my eyes and ideas On money matters, while i was listening to you guys i really really admired your being mature, and i can’t help to really say something while watching you, i love you Bonez since starstruck days but not following you yet. And Fofo i noticed him through watching gma. Really surprised me that the two of you are being together for a long time and at a young age you really thought Bonez lots of things like managing money, etc. And so happy that i did able to run into your video... thank you so much for sharing this and it’s definitely an eye opener to all your followers. God bless your relationship Bonez and Fofo and looking forward to learning more from the two of you. I love you and keep safe. 😊💕😍💐❤️

I have a little sister she's 15 years old and we're planning to get her life insurance so that after college she can decide na whether to continue the insurance she has or withdraw. Thank you for making this video I'm enlightened. I'm starting to build my own family narin (postponed yung kasal this year kasi covid and my mom died) This will be an absolute wake up call also it change my perspective when it comes to money.

In a relationship it is important that you discussed and agreed on how you will handle your finances coz sometimes money becomes the reason for couple separation. I'm happy to know that you already have your system when it comes to your finances. Sharing your thougths and experiences can be an eye opener to others who are planning to get married. ❤

[@mitchross6939]

Solenn and Nico do the same thing! I remember watching one of Solenn's vlog (a long looong time ago) where she talked about how they manage their money (i.e. Both she and Nico spend their own money, then they have a separate account for house bills and other responsibilities). I think every couple should use this set up especially in this era where most couples have their own job and salary. Money makes people crazy. So this system reduces the stress and pressure on the relationship!

[@cazzandhramaebullecer4619]
