Whether you’re newlyweds or have been together for years, navigating money matters can be challenging, especially when you start blending incomes, expenses, and financial goals.

In this episode, I discuss three effective systems for managing finances in a marriage:

Entirely Combined: The traditional approach where both partners share everything—income, expenses, savings, and investments. I share why this method often leads to stronger partnerships and better financial outcomes.
Half and Half: A balanced approach where couples maintain a shared account for bills while also having individual accounts for personal spending. This method allows for autonomy while still working towards common financial goals.
All Separate: While I don’t recommend this for everyone, I explore how some couples, especially those who marry later in life, find success in managing their finances separately.

Throughout the episode, I emphasize the importance of communication and teamwork in achieving financial goals together. It’s not just about the numbers; it’s about building a strong partnership.
