Podcast: Money For Couples with Ramit Sethi
Published On: Tue Apr 19 2022
Description: Alex and Nicole are getting married this summer and plan to start a family in a few years. That much, they know. How they’ll get there is another question. Nicole doesn’t want to deal with finances—she prefers to ignore it. Alex, on the other hand, is in the position of having to handle finances on her own for the both of them. Naturally, that leads to stress and resentment. Delegating financial responsibility in a relationship rarely works. Money affects both partners so much that it inevitably creates an unhealthy power dynamic. Let’s see if we can get Nicole and Alex to approach money like a true partnership so they can both step up to the responsibilities—and joy—of living a Rich Life.
