40% of Australian unaware of thier partner's income

We don’t know of any relationship which is completely transparent about money. It’s just a matter of degree. New research from financial institution ING shows one in five Australians keep financial secrets from their partner. The report shows women are most likely to keep financial secrets in case the relationship doesn’t work out, while men are more likely to cover up larger purchases their partner could disapprove of. And how about this for a stat; 40 per cent of Aussies don’t know how much their partner earns. As a nation it sounds like we’re not being entirely honest with each other.
