Love & Money: Achieving Financial Intimacy

It has often been reported that financial discord is one of the top reasons for divorce. One way to potentially avoid snags in communication when it comes to finances is to sit down and have an honest conversation with your mate about money. Financial Intimacy, a book by financial coach Jacquette Timmons, aims to help couples communicate more effectively about their finances. It is a guide to money and relationships. According to Timmons, financial intimacy involves managing money’s emotional impact on your romantic relationship. She goes on to say that not possessing this skill can cause relationships to become damaged because of financial stress. In addition, Timmons says financial intimacy is not a one-time event, but an ongoing process that must be nurtured on a daily basis.
