It's worse than that. The people that have no experience, no skills, and no knowledge have more say than you do.

I shouldn't say this...

I do my son's taxes. I'm a CPA; I save him 1000s of $ but his wife (a millennial White woman) constantly 2nd guesses my abilities. It causes a lot of strife in his marriage. I'm going to let her do their taxes next year. How did we fucking get to this?

That’s been the female role for a long time. I’m regularly underestimated by mine.

My uncle had almost no retirement savings and no life insurance at age 40 when he was diagnosed with cancer and dead less than a year later. My aunt had insisted for years that they should spend everything on vacations, home improvements, etc (everything *she* wanted, instant gratification)... When he died that left her and my two cousins with next to nothing.

I love my wife but if I didn’t put my foot down she would be in the same boat if something happened to me. She now knows that I’m correct. Plenty of life insurance, I max out my 401k every year and we’re almost to the point of having hers maxed out as well. Now to be clear I don’t want to die but in the event that I do, I know and she knows that they will be fine financially.

Women naturally want to control their immediate surroundings, including their husband and children. That's why mother-in-laws can be such dragons sometimes (not mine, thankfully.) I don't think any woman is exempt from this. It's on a spectrum, though, so some are better than others.

My wife has always followed my lead on major decisions in our lives, or in things I have personal experience in, but on the smaller everyday things she tends to try and get her way. There are times when something to do with IT comes up at home, and she's trying to tell me how I need to fix it, and I just smile until she realizes what she's doing.

My most recent grand victory was when I told her in Jan-Feb to start stocking up on food and essentials. She said she thought that I was crazy, but when the March lockdowns hit, I looked like a prophet to her.

You know, I remember the first time I read Atlas Shrugged, I recoiled at the descriptions of all the principle antagonists and the looters as a whole. I thought it was really malicious to portray them as grasping, lazy, entitled, dishonest, and ultimately violent. But now that the mask of the left has been taken off, Rand seems like a prophet.

Rand described it perfectly but her remedy was feudalism. (Rand's love life was a catastrophe. I always say, "look at the fruits of their labor," to identify people who aren't quite on point. Rand got some things perfectly correct but on the whole, yikes, fame isn't everything.)

Rand was also a speed junkie. I read a few years ago she would get early amphetamines and write like a demon.

Might explain th he length of the book.

That's pretty much my marriage too. Right down to stocking up in Jan.

I dont care much about being in charge of the minutia of daily life. In fact, I like that she does it. But my wife and kids ask me for directions on bigger stuff. It's a beautiful system.

That’s how it should work. Good man.

Well, as a nation, we let that slip away from us; women are making all the decisions now.

Yep.
There was an ancient Greek play where the women run everything and the world goes to shit.
