That’s how you actually enjoy your money, guilt-free.You're not "bad at money"—you just have a type: Avoider, Optimizer, Worrier, or Dreamer—your money personality isn’t a flaw, but it does come with blind spots. Spot them before they cost you.Marrying your financial opposite is the universe balancing your checkbook: The spreadsheet-obsessed and the “it’ll all work out” dreamers drive each other crazy—but when they get aligned, magic happens.Talking about money shouldn’t feel like scheduling a root canal: If every financial convo with your spouse turns into a therapy session or a courtroom drama, you’re doing it wrong. Try curiosity instead of criticism.Dreaming won’t pay your bills (but neither will obsessing over spreadsheets): The best financial strategy? A little bit of optimism, a little bit of tracking, and a whole lot of communication.// Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.I spent 12 years as a data scientist at HP and purchased $5M worth of real estate over 15 years using my own money.
