SummaryWhy Is Money The Number One Cause Of Tension Among Modern
Couples?
Because most haven't recognized that they're in business
together. The Family CFO: The Couple's Business Plan for
Love and Money is the first book that teaches partners to
apply skills and talents they already use at work to their
money lives so that they can stop worrying about finances
and put their emotional energy where it belongs -- into
making their many dreams come true. At Some Point In Every Relationship, Money Becomes An
Issue. It often happens when couples first consider moving in
together or getting married, or when they're facing a major
life decision such as buying a home or having children.
Whether it happens sooner or later, though, finally taking
control of your financial future is a huge step toward
solidifying your relationship and realizing your shared
dreams. The Family CFO introduces couples to a personal-finance
plan that turns managing your money into a romantic
experience. By applying the tools and rules of the business
world to minimize conflict and anxiety, you and your
partner can focus on setting priorities and reaching goals
instead of arguing over budgets. Then, after learning how
to run the Family CFO system, you can work out personalized
solutions to some of the biggest challenges couples face,
including: Wrestling control of debt
Maintaining your lifestyle if one of you loses your job
Deciding whether to change careers
Arranging for one of you to stay at home with the kids. In plain language illustrated with real couples' stories
and supplemented with helpful worksheets, The Family CFO
offers best family practices worthy of even the most
accomplished chief financial officer. And as the authors
well know and show, approaching your joint finances like a
business can lead to a lifetime of shared pleasure.
