In our world currently, a man [ mostly ] and woman can be a push to the brink of his / her relationship over financial issues. It is mostly a source of problems than a source of happiness. That is because the majority consider money / financial status the biggest point when looking for partners, even to the extent of forgetting that there are other bigger factors to consider.
So whenever there is a shortage in the flow of cash from one end to the other, the milker doesn’t appreciate the effort but always wants more – Oliver Twist.
As we speak about financial freedom in a relationship, you must be advised not to jump into some financial decisions before marriage. Let’s say: having a joint account with your partner when you are yet to marry. This ends in tears 90% on research.
Despite that being a strong point, it is not advisable to keep a lot of things about finance or income a secret to your partner. A lot of things can creep in using that avenue.
Now let’s have a look at a few points that can make your relationship or marriage sweet and enjoyable financially.
- BEING OPEN ABOUT YOUR FINANCES.
This requires both partners to be open about what they do and how much they earn, how much they can save, what consumes a bigger part of their incomes etc. - LIVING WITHIN YOUR LIMIT.
Don’t live on your income but live within it. What this means is that, as a man or woman who is into a relationship or married, your priority is your immediate family. Don’t try to impress anyone with what you drive. wear, own, etc. Who knows, those you are struggling to match are not getting it from the gains, but relatives. However the spending may be, there must a little saving at the end of every month. - AVOIDING DEBTS: Note: Not all debts are bad, loans for investment or business are not bad debts but couples must have a plan to avoid going into the loan for personal use until the main is paid.
- DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO KEEP A JOINT ACCOUNT. This is one thing that must be decided by both parties. It is good when it is done in marriage. Not dating and courting. Because all those can fail, though a marriage can fail too but hardly than courting and dating.
- COMBINING RESOURCES
Marriage is a union, so don’t mark territories financially and don’t try to outsmart your partner. To have a stronger voice in marriage, the success of the family must come from both heads. Both parties contributing to the dreams of the family makes it more beautiful - INVEST AS EARLY AS YOU CAN: This is a step to help avoid number 3. Young couples must learn to start investing just as taking care of a baby to avoid asking for loans and aids in the future. This will help in making life less stressful and decisive for the couples. For example: To say which is the best school my child must attend than which school can l afford for my child.
- THERE MIST BE INVESTMENT GOALS: Every investment must have a goal, for the kid’s education, house, car, etc. Before the start of the investment, there must be a purpose for it.
