6.     How to handle splitting finances with a spouse

JENNIFER’S 3 BEST TIPS ON LIVING A GOOD LIFE:

  1. Live your values – sit down and list out what your top values are and lay out a vision for your future
  2. Know where your dollars are going and make sure they’re bringing you the value you want – For any choice you make with your money, ask “Is this bringing me closer to the future I want? Or taking me farther away?”
  3. See every paycheck as an opportunity to be less dependent on your future paychecks – Take as much as you can from every check and invest so it can start growing. The harder your money works for you the less you have to work for your money, and that is financial freedom.
