Money for sure can’t buy love, but it can definitely keep you happy if you and bae are doing the right things with it. Let’s be real...who wants to be with someone that just blows through all of their money?
USA Todayconnected with some researchers fromThe Ascent, and they’ve got proof that the relationship isn’t good if the money isn’t right. Here’s what they suggest for a good relationship:
- Each partner gets some fun money- Apparently 82% of couples argue about this. Your boo lies about buying that new watch, after they promised not to...no bueno!
- Discuss purchases over a certain dollar threshold- If it’s over $250-dollars, just run it by your boo first.There’s a pretty good chance they won’t be on board for this purchase.
- Be transparent about your finances- 70% of people say that talking about their finances is easy. Just keep that same energy when your bank account isn’t looking as sexy as it is now.
When the money’s good, the relationship’s good, too!
