Couples

When it comes to sharing finances with a partner, there's no universal approach that fits every situation. We each have unique emotions, experiences, and beliefs about money.

How We Can Help

Goal Setting

  • While financial goals are central to the financial planning process, open communication, transparency, and support are foundational to the plan's success. Together, we can work on creating that foundation so that you and your partner can set the stage for your financial future.

Budgeting

  • Sharing finances with your partner depends on your comfort level, trust, relative income levels and, ultimately, the dynamics of your relationship. Check out this article our founder Mark Reyes wrote that addresses this topic specifically.

Investing

  • Having a specific investment goal created together can help set the foundation for investing together. However, different risk tolerances may throw off the plan. Determining how much risk is required to achieve the goal can be a starting point for this conversation, but finding ways to compromise may be most impactful.

Managing Debt

  • Paying down debt can get overwhelming. Here's two debt repayment methods that might help you stay on track. 

    Avalanche: this method puts extra funds towards the most expensive debt first while paying the minimums on all other debt. The Avalanche method helps you pay down debt faster and with fewer interest fees. 

    Snowball: this method puts extra funds towards the smallest balance debt first, while paying the minimums on all other debt. The Snowball method may not give you the most savings, but for some people it's a big incentive to see a $0 balance on a debt sooner than later, which can help motivate them to keep paying down debt.

    If you'd like to talk about these options and figure out the best choice for you, schedule a consultation call. During this call, we can conduct a comprehensive overview of your financial situation and goals and then create specific actions that you can take to improve your financial future.

Retirement Saving

  • If you and your partner are married and file taxes jointly, you may be able to contribute to a spousal IRA. This would allow you to contribute up to the $7,000 limit for IRAs for 2025.

    If you'd like to talk about your retirement investment options and figure out the best choice for you, schedule a consultation call.

  • Becoming a parent is an exciting and nerve racking experience, we’re happy to help guide you through your financial decisions. Things to consider include creating an updated budget with child expenses baked in, how much paid family leave you plan on taking, having an appropriate amount of life insurance, and making sure you have an updated will or trust in place.
