You may be covering this in your next post, but 2 money issues that I always think are important are : <BR/><BR/>1. Define what constitutes a major purchase. For some people and budget situations an unplanned $10 expense is a big deal. Other people think nothing of putting a couple of hundred dollars on their charge card if the timing seems right. At what level is it appropriate to consult the other before making a purchase? <BR/><BR/>Discuss joint checking and savings accounts. Will you share one set of accounts or try to keep your finances separate? This can be an emotional issue for many couples. For some, joint assets are a way of signaling their commitment to the marriage. For others, having a checkbook that they alone control is a sign of self-worth that they won't want to relinquish.Jeanienoreply@blogger.com
