Marriage and money are two extremely tough subjects to try and join together. With that thought in mind, we decided to dedicate an episode of The His & Her Money Show to helping couples understand how to better communicate about money.
It’s no secret that the topic of money is one of the leading causes of divorce in our country. Due to this fact, it is imperative that we learn how to talk through our finances in such a way, that allows for unity and ones in our marriages.
To help us delve into this discussion, we interviewed Certified Financial Planner Katie Brewer of Your Richest Life Planning. She shares advice for all couples, to help them successfully merge marriage and money once and for all.
Katie Brewer, CFP® is a Dallas, Fort Worth, and online fee-only financial planner with over 11 years of experience. Her passion is helping clients get their financial lives in order to start living their richest lives.
