Weekly Insights: Breaking the Taboo - Talking Finances as a Couple

Strictly Money with Saijal Patel

Why do so many couples avoid talking about money when it’s essential in order to build and protect one’s wealth?

Join me as I explore why couples need to discuss their finances and, more importantly, how to navigate these conversations effectively.

Research consistently highlights that couples who openly communicate about money are happier and more fulfilled in their relationships. However, despite these findings, many couples still find it challenging and awkward to broach the subject.

So if that’s you - you’re not alone. Whether you're newlyweds, longtime partners, or somewhere in between, I’ll share my advice on how to achieving financial harmony and strengthening your relationship along the way.
