They have their own opinions expressed by business partners.
Money can ruin your relationship – so when you say “I do” on the altar, you will also need to say “do” with your financing.
I am a framework that I have prepared to visit your financial matters as a married couple. It goes like this:
IImprove conversation
DiIVVY UP “Your, Mine and Our” accounts
Opt for a prenup
To tell how it works, I will give you an example of a real life-with a couple of famous personality Shrana Burgess And Brian Aston Green.
Step 1: Start the conversation
Launching a mini-conversation looks like it would be a brain-brain-but many couple left it.
This happened with Shrana and Brian. Shrana told me on her podcast, “We think we were much faster.” Shrana told me on her podcast. The restoration of money This week, “I think it was like going through a full -fledged tunnel at the beginning of our relationship, thus there was some conversation that just lost.”
If you have not yet made this conversation, it is Now. Don’t wait too long. If you wait until the “right time” to talk about the money, it will be too late.
So, what should you talk about? There is a place to start here:
Step 2: Divide Up Accounts
The first question is whether the couple encounters: Whose money is?
This is a personal decision, and there is no system that works for every couple. Some couples combine finances. Some keep them separate. Personally, I like a system I say “yours, mine, and ours.”
It’s easy: You have a bank account that is just for you, your spouse only holds an account for them, and you both contribute to the joint account. In this way, you maintain some financial freedom, but also make financial life together.
This is what Shrana and Brian do. Shrana’s IT, it helps keep magic alive. “I don’t want to be more than their books, because it’s not my job,” he said. “I feel like it removes some romance.”
But when you make a plan Merger Financial support, you should also plan to eliminate them. Which means …
Step 3: Choose a Prayer Up
If you have a “ours” or a shared account form, a preparation is important.
This conversation can make people anxious. I first talked to Shrana a year ago, and asked her whether she and Brian had a plan. She was apparently frozen, and then told me that it would be strange to talk to Brian.
But a year later, he has changed his lyrics. He recently told me, “I think saving myself is a beautiful thing.” “Knowing that everything is fair and you have made big decisions, I think it’s surprisingly smart.”
I fully agree – but I understand the fear of it a year ago.
Pranups feel unusual and pressure, mostly because people understand Pranps as a divorce plan. But really, it’s just insurance. You don’t get car insurance Because You are planning to get into a car accident. You get insurance in the event of an emergency, and you hope you never have to use, but it makes you feel a bit more comfortable in your car.
This is how a perian should feel – this is an emergency move that makes you feel more secure in your relationship, not less.
The intersection of love and money may be dirty, but if you follow the iDo framework, you will be fixing through your partner, yourself and your wallet.
