I found this pophistory comment and i had to save it wih how hilariously stupid it is as it comes up quite frequently but if you spend anytime at all thinking about it, it makes absoultly no sense.
We know very little of vikings and most of that is from assumption or written by their enemies. But what we do know is that they were kick ass sailors and for vikings to be such good sailors they had to have some pretty good know how of math for navigation, trading and ship building.
This coment from reddit about a guy asking the same thing was pretty good:

Or hear me out here you leave whatever booty you comeback with your wife as you go out on another raid. Who else are you gonna trust? Slaves? Lmao no. Other men? Who could take your shit as you are gone on another 3 or even 4 year trip? No of course you leave it with the queen of the house cause she has an intrest in making sure nobody takes your stuff for the sake of the family.
