One of you might be the saver and one might be the spender. In my relationship I’m the saver and my husband is the spender. Not a crazy spender, but I’m a crazy saver.

I’m pretty sure we would be the most boring couple in the world if he thought the same way about money as I do.

That is what’s so nice about having two partners who think differently about money. One keeps you on track and pointed towards your goals while the other helps you to loosen up and have fun along the journey.
