As you look forward to your new life together, your lifestyle choices and financial decisions will be important. Here are four easy steps to take on your financial journey as a couple.
Open Communication & Flexibility
You will need to talk about money openly just like you discuss where you want to go on vacation. It needs to be an established routine for you. You will need to compromise and be flexible about where you spend money. You must help each other become smarter about spending and saving.
Lifestyle Choices and Finances
You should make all lifestyle choices with your finances in mind. Sit down and talk about what your future and what type of life you envision. What would you like to do in the next couple of years? What are your priorities and what will your cash flow needs be? Develop a budget together.
Ties That Bind
After you marry, your assets are bound together figuratively and legally. Make sure you prepare the proper legal documentation including wills and changing beneficiaries on your investment accounts.
A Financial Road Map
Work with a financial advisor to put together a plan which highlights financial goals to achieve. The Game of Life was a board game that was developed to see how your lifestyle will change from early adulthood to retirement. What are your next steps as a couple? Find the right balance between your current responsibilities like paying bills and focusing on making your dreams happen like buying a house.
