Money, money, money

Psychologist state that about 70% of divorces are a result of financial concerns. Attorneys believe it is closer to 80%. That is a pretty scary statistic. Often difficulties in marriages and families are linked to money problems which escalate into many additional issues. Fortunately, we have a way to avoid all of this disharmony. Here is a link to the published pamphlet "One For the Money". It illustrates 12 specific steps that you can take to avoid falling into financial problems, and more importantly, marital conflict

The pamphlet states:

"These few points and suggestions are not intended to be all inclusive or exhaustive. Rather, it is hoped that a need has been brought to the surface for our serious consideration. We need to recognize and be aware of these basic guidelines for wise money management".

We must manage our money so that it doesn't define our lives and ruin our relationships.
