Money is the number one cause of arguments among married couples, yet surprisingly few address this issue. Now with both the partners being earning members, planning finances is a big responsibility.
It is imperative that couples discuss important issues, such as handling debt, buying a home, planning for kids and retirement, creating a financial safety net with insurance and emergency funds.
Shaaditimes spoke to couples to know how they handle this sensitive issue.
Trupti and Madan Jain
Do you consult each other before taking any important financial decisions?
Yes, we consult each other for everything, not just financial decisions. So even when we need to take financial decisions, we consult each other.
Who manages the finances?
Madan takes care of the finances and all related work like banking, going to the CA, investing.
Do you hold individual or joint bank accounts?
Joint accounts.
Have you planned for the future? How?
We have long term plans. We do not invest in shares and the stock market. We believe in long term financial planning like insurance, fixed deposits and such. The only shares we have are those given by our parents.
Have you ever fought over money?
No. Never. We have been married for 23 years now and we've never had an argument regarding finances.
