I bet the title got your attention didn’t it? The real question is do you want to Get Financially Naked? For most, the answer to this question is no…it just seems to scary. The topic of finances becomes a hot button for many relationships. Many times those hard questions get swept under the rug until after the wedding bliss settles and couples find themselves at odds when money issues start appearing. Decisions like, do you have joint or separate accounts? Are expenses covered equally or is one of the couple primarily responsible? If you have children, do you pay for their college? The list of financial questions continue…
Get Financially Naked, written by Manisha Thakor, MBA, CFA, and Sharon Kedar, MBA, CFA is one of the newest books I was asked to review. This is a great book to help avoid the financial stress that can destroy even the best relationship.
