Craig Saloner – Mastering Relationships & Finances

Let’s brainstorm: what makes a good relationship? Effective communication, compatibility, shared values, and good sex all come to mind. But how about money management? It might not be as obvious, but the fact is that money is one of the most crucial factors in a romantic relationship. In fact, it’s the #1 thing that couples fight about it and the #2 reason they get divorced! Building a solid financial foundation in a relationship can help set you up for success. And like anything worth doing, it takes some work! Money is both practical and emotional, and we must acknowledge both ways it impacts our relationships. Why Money Matters in Relationships Money is a pervasive factor in our lives. It dominates our daily decision-making and has the power to dramatically influence the path we take. Since money is so important to daily life, it must be important in our relationships! Here’s the problem: most of us were never taught how to be good with money.    Craig Saloner has been an entrepreneur and working with finances for over 20 years.  He brings his knowledge of finances and relationships to the podcast.  He is the creator of Finance4Couples and Empowered Wealth For Women.
