Raise your hand. Are you the tightwad or the spendthrift in your relationship? I have to admit, I’m mostly the tightwad but don’t get me wrong, I do love to spend money too. Get this, tightwads are more likely to marry spendthrifts than they are to marry someone like themselves. That’s what motivated our guest, Scott Rick, a behavioral scientist at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business to write his new book TIGHTWADS AND SPENDTHRIFTS: Navigating the Money Minefield in Real Relationships. He was in search of one answer: can seemingly opposing financial personalities coexist peacefully? In this episode, we’re going to talk about it all. How do you make peace with your partner, what is Financial infidelity, why financial translucency aka not sharing all the details of what we spend our money on could save a lot of partnerships, and how to talk to your kids about money so they don’t mimic your tightwadness or spendthriftness. Grab your partner, or just slide this episode their way after you listen. It’s a great way to open up a money conversation.  Links Tightwads and Spendthrifts book Scott's website SPONSORS Thanks to Monarch for sponsoring the show. ​​After trying out Monarch for myself, I understand why it’s the top-rated personal finance app. Listeners of this show will get an extended thirty-day free trial when you go to www.monarchmoney.com/ETM.  Thanks to Uncommon Goods for sponsoring the show.
