Couples and their finances
I wonder why two adults have such a hard time sitting down and planning their budget and future goals.
Early in our mariage, I let my wife run the household finances while I ran the business. Neither of us were financially smart, but we managed. Many years later, I became a DR fan and became very proactive about our finances.
I'm not a peoples person, as many of you know, but a couple should be able to sit down and plan their budgets and goals together. It seems personal finance is like a taboo few people can agree on. I'm constantly trying to find ways to better our position and prepare for future possible setbacks.
My wife has no desire to discuss our finances and at the same time, fights me on every change I want to make. Am I the olny one with this problem?
