The only way finances can work in marriage is if it\u2019s laundered first. Yes, you read that right. Launder your money. Clean it of ownership, of claim. Too many couples have split their financial assets, bank accounts, and credit cards.

A relationship based on earning<\/a> says, \u201cwhat\u2019s yours is yours, and what\u2019s mine is mine.\u201d In this system, sharing household bills and common expenses works just fine as long as there is an abundance of money or abundance of agreement. Inevitably, the abundance goes away. “Fairness” changes over time, especially when one starts out earning their spouse.

Jealousy, resentments, and competition will grow in abundance when what is “fair” changes. When couples never financially marry each other, competition is bound to happen. Competition means that one person wins and the other loses.

Launder money so that when it\u2019s done being washed, neither the husband or the wife know who\u2019s money it is. It needs to be washed of individual ownership. The end result is: \u201cWe earned this.\u201d Become teammates, not opponents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
