Money & Marriage

My wife and I have opposite personalities. A good visual would be to imagine a pitbull and a poodle…and uh, I’m the pitbull!

This Valentine’s Day, you may be preparing for a romantic dinner, a quiet evening at home OR another night of unspoken tension.

Let me encourage you – my wife and I were not united over our finances for the first 21 years.

I had to learn to love her traits, and she had to learn to love my personality. Once we started to appreciate, understand, and respect the other’s personality, it made the rest a lot easier.

So decide today to appreciate your spouse’s differences. If you were both the same, one of you wouldn’t be necessary!
