"You’re not financially incompatible; You’re just financially misunderstood!"
Hey couples! I’m Chae, a husband, father, financial expert, and author. Before getting married, my wife and I realized the importance of understanding each other’s relationship with money. We discussed our differences and similarities, and developed a shared plan for creating financial stability and a lasting relationship. Setting shared financial goals, such as saving for a home, vacation, or retirement, strengthened our bond and kept us motivated.
We worked as a team to create a budget that balanced our incomes, expenses, and savings. We learned not to let money be a source of stress in our relationship, and you can do it too! With this course, you’ll learn how to build a financial approach that doesn’t just “make the numbers work”; it makes your life work. You and your partner will create a budget plan that reflects what matters most to you, supports the vision you have for your future, and feels good to use every day.
