Relationships and finance. Tips for the future.

from zenhabits.

1. Sit down and talk about financial goals and values
one person might want to be frugal in order to save for future goals,
while the other might like to spend and enjoy things now, while the
getting is good. The differences often come from different upbringings,
and they can be emotionally charged.

Remove emotions from financial talk. From your first
meetings about financial goals to your subsequent weekly talks (see
Step 5), it’s important that the two of you stay calm, don’t get hurt
or angry over any of the issues, and try to look at these issues
objectively

Review your goals regularly.

Above all, stay positive and be honest. Remember: you’re a team
