| The Financial Samurai Sam Dogen says: “Giving financial independence is a gift of love”.
A study has found that the top predictor of divorce is arguments about money.
According to the 2013 Kansas State University study of more than 4,500 couples, arguments about money was by far the top predictor of divorce.
According to a creditcards.com report, approximately 7.2 million Americans (4.4 million men and 2.8 million women) have hidden a bank or credit card account that their live-in spouse or partner doesn’t know about.
What’s going on?
For one, if you are constantly feeling financially constrained, there’s no surprise that your relationship will suffer.
Therefore, making enough money to live a comfortable lifestyle is important. Then getting 100 per cent on the same page when it comes to spending and reaching financial targets is the obvious next step.
