One thing no one ever warns you about happy relationships is just how many awkward conversations they can require you to have.
And despite all the big ones of politics, religion and family – I find one topic almost no one wants to talk about is money.
Who should pay on a date? Should you be honest with your partner how much money (or debt) you have? How do you handle it when one of you earns significantly higher income in a relationship than the other?
These are all hugely important, and yet most people bury their heads in the sand and hope these issues will magically work themselves out if you’re truly in love (pro tip: they won’t).
So in this week’s video, I sat down with my good friend Ramit Sethi, bestselling author and CEO of “I Will Teach You To Be Rich,” to learn exactly how to have these difficult conversations so you can feel happy and secure about money in your relationship.
I’ve never talked about this before, so I can’t wait to hear your comments on this one…
