Re: Easier to save
Well, since I am a divorcee, I can tell you that it's been much easier for me to operate as a single rather than with my ex. We were compatible in many ways, but unfortunately, financial compatibility wasn't one of them.
From my perspective, she is someone who would buy things without knowing how it can be of a consquence later. By the time we divorced, she racked up a quarter of a million dollars in debt and next to no asset.
To be perfectly fair, I know she complains about me being a money-grubbing tight wad who doesn't want to spend any money, especially on her to make her happy.
Er.... That doesn't help, does it? The one thing I have learned the hard way is that a couple needs to be on the same page, no matter what, when it comes to matters regarding finance.
