Education Week Financial Ideas

These ideas are from my notes in Scott Marsh's lectures, they concern the marriage relationship and money. I'm going to number them so that you can look them up easily.
1) Marriage partnerships could be more important for success in money than how well you take care of money.
2) Meaningful shared goals are the essence of eternal energy and are those you can share together.
3) The four C's of a great marriage - Chemistry, Communication, Committment to Christ and Cash Savings.
4) Money management is critical to marriage and marriage can be critical to financial success.
A) 89% of divorce can be traced to accusations over money.
B) Money causes more problems in marriage than anything else.
C) A supportive spouse was one of the five most important factors that led millionaires to their success.
5) A HAPPY WIFE is a HAPPY LIFE!!!
6) Define what your hopes are for yourselves and your children. Create a plan of reaching those goals. Committ to living well below your means. Have friends that are committed to the same goals.
7) Don't share resources with your children - share opportunities to be creative. Openly discuss finances and expectations with children.
8) Make sure your goals are visual!
9) Have a FAMILY SIGNATURE - a humanitarian cause.
10) Make Heavenly Father a partner financially.

There are other ideas but I thought I'd start with these.
Hope you have a thrifty day!!! Love you lots.
