Why Even Billionaires Can’t Avoid the Money Talk—And What That Means for Your Relationship

Last week, headlines were buzzing as two of the most powerful men in the world—one the richest, the other the most politically influential—got into a surprisingly petty and very public dispute over… money.

Yes, even billionaires bicker about finances.

It’s a reminder that no relationship—no matter how powerful or wealthy—is immune to money tension. Every couple, at some point, faces “the talk”: Who’s paying for what? How do we split expenses? What’s fair?

At Smoov, we believe managing finances as a couple shouldn’t be complicated—or awkward.

That’s why we built an AI-powered platform to help modern couples navigate shared expenses without the stress. Whether you’re moving in together, married, or just splitting Netflix and takeout, Smoov helps eliminate financial friction by:

• Removing awkward Venmo requests

• Tracking shared subscriptions automatically

• Simplifying the “who bought what” of Costco hauls

• And more

Just connect your cards, flag the purchases worth splitting, and let Smoov handle the rest.

Because love is hard enough—your finances don’t have to be.
