Money, Sex and In-Laws: These are often the three most intense areas of conflict in any marriage. 

On today's episode, we dive into the area of finances and see how our "money story" (how we were raised to view and treat money) can impact our marriage. We'll also invite you to explore your money story with your spouse with some of these great conversation starters provided below!

Sample Questions to Ask About Your Money Story (from Shaun Maslyk, CFP)

What were your childhood experiences with money? What is your earliest money memory? What are your childhood memories, both positive and negative, about money? What money lessons did you learn from your mother, father or another parental figure?
