Your Money, OUR MONEY?

Let’s rip off the band-aid, shall we? When it comes to matters romance, we often focus on the compatibility aspect; whether he can slow jam to Fugees’ Killing Me Softly, whether he loves old classic movies that you two can binge watch on a lazy day like Forrest Gump or Pulp Fiction, and when it comes to pets if he’s a cat or dog person. However, we forget about one crucial aspect: financial compatibility.

First things first, there’s nothing wrong with a man who takes charge. This is an attribute that some -if not most- women find sexy. There’s just something about a man who gives an assuring ‘I’ll take care of it’ that makes him sexy. This, however, doesn’t mean that you should be left in the dark when it comes to financial issues.

Research shows that money is among the top three causes of divorce.

Don’t be that person who, one child later, you find out that the love of your life is a spendthrift who prefers dropping a cool Ksh10,000 on booze for his boys every other weekend instead of paying his child’s school fees, or taking care of the rent.
