Presents family financial fluency - the insight, knowledge and vocabulary that the couples need to communicate effectively about their money and their feelings about it. This book offers up dozens of real-life scenarios between couples, with actual scripts and suggestions of how to broach touchy subjects with your significant other.
At some point in every relationship couples run up against financial quandaries that neither imagined while dating. Some will be relatively small, such as worrying over a mate's bad credit history; some will be huge; such as a spouse taking financial control in a marriage of supposed equals. Too often with money, couples face two choices: fight and risk making the situation worse, or keep quiet and risk making the situation worse. "Financially Ever After" offers a third option: family financial fluency - the insight, knowledge and vocabulary couples need to communicate effectively about their money and their feelings about it. Opdyke offers up dozens of real-life scenarios between couples, with actual scripts and suggestions of how to broach touchy subjects with your significant other.
