Most couples want to avoid tension, arguments, and—of course–breaking up. One way to do that, it seems, is to talk about money.

Whether you’re married, engaged, or just starting to get serious with somebody, it’s a good idea to come clean about your financial situation, learn to share your financial goals, and start talking about your financial habits.

Although we're a married couple who is passionate about financial literacy, we’re not perfect. We’re still human and still learning and growing day by day. But one thing we're good at is honest communication about finances with each other.

And by that, we don’t just mean: “Hey babe, have you paid the credit card bill this month?”

• How we’re doing with daily expenses compared to what we hope to spend in a month.
• Our financial priorities for the coming year.
• Our financial values and our long-term goals.

In this episode, we want to share with you a gift that may just transform your relationship – the gift of talking about money. 

Tune in to listen to the six tips that have worked well for us when it comes to managing money as a couple.
