LOL. I'd agree with that statement, but sadly, my cats boss me around quite a bit!Originally Posted by SouthernBelle
Ideally, I'd like to me in a partnership/marriage where decisions were made jointly. My father has shielded my mom (and she has, for whatever reason, consented to this arrangement) from financial decisions. She's never really worked outside the home and really had very little understanding of many practical things.
I'm not my mother's daughter in that sense. I'm in a relationship with someone right now who is very responsible financially. If (and this is just an "if") we were to get married, I would anticipate that we'd make joint financial decisions. We're both cut from the same mold as "savers" versus "spenders."

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
