When it comes to relationships, everyone has goals. Some want loyalty, some want love, and then there’s Claressa Shields, who just casually revealed her goal is not paying a single bill ever again.
And honestly? Respect the honesty.
The boxing champ recently made it clear that her man, Papoose, is out here carrying the financial load like it’s part of his daily workout routine. According to Shields, this man pays for everything. And we mean everything. Bills? Covered. Flights? Covered. Life in general? Also covered.
She even said she can’t remember the last time she paid a bill.
Not last month, not last year. She said she does not remember. That memory is gone, deleted, and archived somewhere next to dial-up internet and MySpace passwords.
Now, let’s pause for a second. This is Claressa Shields we’re talking about. A world champion, a woman who could probably knock out half the planet before breakfast. And yet, when it comes to bills, she’s like, “Yeah… that’s his department.”
Meanwhile, Papoose is apparently living his best “provider” life. The man is paying for flights like he works for the airline. You just know he gets that notification, “payment successful”, and nods proudly.
The internet, of course, had a field day. Some people were like, “That’s how it should be!” Others were clutching their wallets in fear, because in today’s economy, hearing someone say they don’t pay bills is basically science fiction.
But let’s be real: if both people are happy, then what’s the issue? Shields is clearly thriving, Papoose seems committed, and somewhere out there, couples are now having very uncomfortable conversations like, “So… about these bills…”
At the end of the day, this is just another reminder that relationships come in all forms. Some split everything 50/50, some argue over who pays for dinner, and then there’s this setup, where one person hasn’t seen a bill in so long it might as well be a myth.
