The issue of finances weighs heavily as one of the major concerns in a marriage. Even statistics have it that a lot of marriages break apart because of financial problems. As for our marriage, we have decided right from the beginning that we will keep a unified account that will represent what’s ours. Nothing like what we had when we were still dating. Marriage binds us as one and whatever we both earn separately goes to a single account — defined as ours. This is our stand and believe it is but biblical.  It is included in the premise that we are not two but one.  We have seen a handful of marriages crumble and it all leads back to how they handle their finances.  This is especially true that majority of households all over the world are double income ones. 

If you happen to have financial issues to settle, I believe it is always best to erase bad credit and prioritize it. If you do not know where to start, you might want to check with Legacy Legal. I have been reading one testimonial after another that they do such awesome service on legal credit repair. If you have issues about this, better to get assistance from a reputable credit repair company and settle things so you are back to a clean slate.

I remember my mom telling us when we were still little that when we marry, we have to still keep a separate account wherein we could pull funds from just in case my sister and me would be in need. It does make sense and this actually does not have to go against our stand on marriage and finances. For the longest time, the unified resources really worked best in our marriage. Because of this, we do not have any questions about whatever expenses because we both know where the money goes and where we stand — whether up or down.

    I agree with the author. I think finances like most other things should be an open book in a marriage. It helps to know the bottom line good or bad. That way both can agree on a plan for the future.

    Finance in marriage
    is a big factor in marriage.. A couple should know how o handle their finances well and treat each other as partners in making decisions, and of course trust on each other.
    I agree with you that a couple should share a common bank account, and count yourselves as one..
