One of the hardest parts of my job (budget strategist for families) is listening to couples fight about how the other one saves too much and never has any fun OR spends too much and doesn’t plan ahead.
It’s really tough to hear – especially the private conversations I have with a lot of wives who are seemingly afraid of making their husband mad (not because he’s abusive, but because they don’t want to have the same conversation AGAIN when it comes to their budget or lack there of).
Most marriages that end in divorce can trace their strain back to finances.
Let’s face it – no two people are alike, so why are we assuming that a husband and wife will look at finances the exact same way?
We need to stop. Right now. We need to face reality. We need to work together.
