Financial stress is a silent relationship killer, but it doesn’t have to be.
As Lauren Jeffery explains, “Financial literacy isn’t just about budgeting – it’s about understanding your relationship with money, your hopes, dreams, and even practicalities like health expenses.”
It’s like learning your partner’s love language, but for finances!
Imagine this: no more tiptoeing around money topics, no more resentment brewing. Instead, you and your partner are on the same page, working together towards shared goals. Sounds dreamy, right?
Here’s the good news: becoming financially literate isn’t rocket science. It starts with simple conversations:
- What are your money values? Do you splurge on experiences or save for the future?
- What are your financial goals? A house, early retirement, or a dream vacation?
- What are your fears? Debt, unexpected expenses, or not having enough for the future?
