I wrote about financial compatibility in early dating, because I think Gen Z couples need to move past only asking who pays the bill.

That question is relevant, yes.

But the deeper questions matter more:

1. How do you view debt? 2. Do you save? 3. Do you use money to control people? 4. Do you believe in 50/50 only when rent is due, but not when chores, planning, emotional labor, and care work enter the room?

I was raised to believe the man is the provider, and I still believe women should have their own money. I have paid bills in relationships. I believe in spoiling my man too.

But I have also learned to spoil men who spoil me.

This piece is personal, a little controversial, and very Abnormal Gen Z.

When the client asked us to think beyond rent payments, I wanted to design an experience that makes life easier for tenants long after they move in.

Here’s Abode Series 2/4: Life after move-in.

I designed the tenant experience around the things that matter daily: rent, due dates, outstanding bills, and maintenance. MoMo payments update automatically, with receipts saved. Need a repair? Snap a photo, raise a ticket, and track it until it’s fixed.

No screenshots for your landlord. No “did you get it?” messages.

Are you building a product and need this kind of design thinking, I’m open to new projects.
