10 Money Habits of Financially Successful Couples

December 23, 2020 By Lindsay Goldwert 1 Comment

First comes love, then comes commitment, then comes financial partnership.

Individuals who come into a relationship with solid money habits have an advantage, but to make love work, it’s essential to merge skills to make the most of dual incomes and hit shared goals and dreams.  Financial planning can be a source of frustration and friction when you have different attitudes toward saving and spending or aren’t sure where your money should be going.
