#### Why you should discuss finance with your partner?
A large record of marriage failure shows that it was caused as a result of lack of adequate communication, the lack of adequate communication which includes communication about finance is one of the reason why marriages crumble.

After marriage you may wish you had asked him some questions about his finance before you got ahead with the marriage, those things would have been sorted out or agreed upon instead of having this re-occurring issue now in the marriage.

One way to prevent financial re-occurring argument in marriage is by understanding your partner’s financial habit while growing up, the childhood of a child sometimes has a great effect on the spending habit of a child. It is important to understand what the both parties were taught as children and then know where to strike the balance. A child who grew up having both Parents as philanthropist, will also grow up to love giving just like his parents and a child who grew up in a home where the parents found it difficult to ever give out to anybody might also grow up with the same mentality until something powerful changes it.


#### The Questions to ask your partner before marriage.

The combination of the children from different families and different financial discipline may result into regular conflict if there is no understanding before marriage. The development of this understanding in marriage will result in building up trust required for a long time marriage.
Ask your partner about how the both of you want to share your finance, there should be a deliberation between which money will be considered as your money, his money and our money. Financial infidelity results into marriage crises very often and to avoid that, the both of you can agree on a percentage of your income that will be recorded for the both of you and the percentage that will be for individuals.

Talk about what your financial achievement is: The both of you may have separate financial goals before you get married and marriage is supposed to make your financial achievement and goal faster and a lot easier. When the both of you join forces you can achieve your goals according to their order of necessity faster than struggling for separate goals and never being able to achieve any of them.
