Smart Couples Finish Rich: 9 Steps to Creating a Rich Future for You and Your Partner

Recommended by my boyfriend's cousin, a professional financial advisor. The emphasis on in-depth communication and the risk of different assumptions is certainly worthwhile. The rest didn't seem as relevant to my own life and patterns as many of the other financial advice books I've read, however. It really feels like it's for yuppies. There's quite an emphasis on saving for big-ticket expenditures. Which many people do need, but not me right now. And the values project just didn't click, especially such a vague way of defining values. He does address debt and retirement and emergency funds, but not in a new way. If this was the first financial book I'd read, it would probably make more of an impression.

Great pracitcal information, especially if you have the decipline to follow even some of the "Steps". If you've read a couple money management books, this won't give you much new information. But it is presented in a clear simple and complete manner that I related to very easily. Not nearly as dry and boring as some money books I've tried struggling thru.

The Smart couples finish rich Nine step hjournal provides every couple with strategies for organizations, communication, and smarter spending that you can put into action immediately. A book for couples of all ages and all tax brackets.
