Re: Communication Problem with hubby
I think you misunderstood. Basically, my husband and I spend the last Thursday of every month going over our finances - balancing the bank statements, making sure we've saved all the receipts for tax purposes, discussing any major purchases that need to be made, retirement accounts, and just anything else that needs to be discussed.
Setting up this time is one of the wisest steps we've ever taken - we rarely argue about finances and don't bring up any financial issues that aren't an emergency until this "meeting". We are focused, and able to make any necessary decisions at this time as well. More importantly, we aren't always talking about money!
