The promises we make at the time of our Nikkah \u201cFor better or for worse\u2026 For richer or for poorer\u201d This is what most of us promise to our spouse when we pledge ourselves in marriage. But unfortunately, the reality is somewhat different than what is promised at the rosy beginning of a marriage, what we see is many couples today can\u2019t seem to survive either richer or poorer due to poor money management skills<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies done by Money magazine found that 70% of married\ncouples argue about money ahead of fights about household chores, snoring and\nfood. Another study found that the most common points of disagreement among\ncouples when it comes to money are: major purchases (34%), a partner\u2019s spending\nhabit (23%) and important investment decisions (14%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Money management can actually be a rewarding way to bond\nwith your loved one. Here are steps to take and tips to make sure you get on\nthe right track for a lifetime of properly managing your joint finances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Money matters and it can also make some spouses even lie,\ncheat, and overspend, and cause all trust within the relationship to be a\ndistant memory. As a newly married couple, how can you prevent these tragedies\nfrom happening in your own marriage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is definitely hope, but you need to act early. In fact,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Write Down Goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After you have determined your baseline financial status,\ndiscuss your long-term financial goals in-depth. For example, do you plan to\nretire at a certain age? Do you want to get out of debt and become a\nmillionaire? If you\u2019re planning on hiring a financial advisor, these are the\nkinds of things they\u2019ll want to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Build an Emergency Fund<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t already have an emergency fund, consider making this a top priority. An emergency fund is a money that is set aside in case something expensive happens unexpectedly, such as a lost job, family illness, natural disaster, or a major home repair. Aim to save about 6 months\u2019 worth of your household expenses in case the emergency is that you have no income<\/a>. Building an emergency fund should be a priority because it will bring financial security and protect your relationship in case disaster strikes. This money should be kept someplace where it\u2019s easy to access. I recommend a Savings account so you can earn a little profit from your funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design a Budget<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As I mentioned, one of my goals with my husband is to ensure that we are within budget each month. So we don\u2019t go into debt<\/a>, we limit how much we\u2019re allowed to spend in certain monthly budget categories, such as food, dining out, and entertainment. Personal Capital allows us to really dig in and get a good idea of where our money is being spent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Track Your Budget<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not enough to just make a budget. You need to make sure\nyou stay within your spending allotment and adjust accordingly as your\nsituation, expenses, or income changes. One very effective way to stick to your\nbudget is to use the envelope budgeting system. This is perfect for young\ncouples who typically have lower incomes and must be careful not to overspend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Share Responsibilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Money management in a marriage<\/a> is not about having a quick discussion with each other and then one person carrying the ball for the couple. It involves both parties working together and sharing responsibilities equally. For example, both husband and wife need to take part in decision-making, budgeting, and bill-paying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, and we\u2019ve seen this happen, if responsibilities\naren\u2019t divided and something happens to the \u201cfinancial\u201d spouse, the other\nspouse can be left clueless. Bills may go unpaid, debt may accumulate, and what\nonce was a solid financial position can deteriorate rapidly. In the interest of\npreserving you and your spouse\u2019s welfare, make sure each of you is aware of\nyour entire financial picture and is in charge of managing a portion of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work as a Team<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To properly work as a team, you must have the same goals in\nmind. Work together to come up with ways to accomplish those goals. Always\nencourage each other and build each other up. Be aware of your own weaknesses\nand strengths, and play off the strengths of your spouse to bring synergy to\nwhat you are trying to accomplish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be Honest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Honesty is always the best policy, especially when it comes to money management in marriage. If you mess up or make a purchase you shouldn\u2019t have, tell your spouse and own up to your mistake<\/a>. Your spouse may be upset with you initially, but after he or she cools off will respect you and trust you because you were open and honest. Lying about money to your spouse has huge repercussions, including divorce, so don\u2019t even think about going there if you want your marriage to last a lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust Your Spouse <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unless you determine that your spouse is indeed lying to you, trust your new spouse to handle money. Withholding responsibilities from your spouse or watching every move he or she makes is condescending and demeaning. Don\u2019t ask how much money your spouse spent or made during the day. Learn to let go of the control and just trust. Combining bank accounts is a great way to practice this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn from Each Other <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t think of yourself as the be-all and end-all of\nfinancial knowledge. There is a chance that your spouse knows more or is more\nexperienced and disciplined when it comes to handling money. Even more likely,\nthere will be some things you know more about and some things your spouse knows\nmore about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, I know more about making everyday purchases\nthan my husband does, such as extreme couponing. On the other hand, my husband\nknows more about investing, so we are able to learn these things from each\nother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EndNote…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marriage and money can be tricky, but the best thing you can do is be open and honest. Start off on the right foot by talking about money management and coming up with a solid plan to deal with budgeting, spending, and investing. The sooner you do this, the better. If you form good money management habits<\/a> as a newly married couple, you\u2019ll be able to work as a team through whatever life throws at you for many years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you and your spouse manage money? What are some of\nthe things that have worked best in your situation?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
