MONEY!HONEY!



Are you uncomfortable with the notion of a pre-nup?  Is your potential partner balking at the very thought?
Certainly money is an essential component of any marriage; and the cause of plenty of divorces.
If knowledge is power at least consider the following factors when deciding if this "financial" partnership is right for you.

1.Do you like controlling your money?
Or do you like someone else managing your money?
2.How do you spend your money?
Does charity begin at home with you (a.k.a. do you often buy a new pocketbook or set of golf clubs) or in your community (you give often and a lot to aid others)?
3.Are you a "saver"? Or do you want to save for your retirement?
4.Do you think it falls on your shoulders to save over your lifetime to support your children? Pay for college or graduate programs? Pay for your grandchildren? Save money for your children to inherit?
5. Are you a bear or a bull when it comes to investing?
