Putting my counselor hat on:

So many couples ignore talking about money when they're engaged (or even seriously dating.)

That's why it's important to seek some sort of premarital counseling because it forces you to talk about this stuff with a neutral party.

Ex: You're going to have a problem if you find (after marriage) that your hubby is all about having control of all money/spending decisions and handing you a $2o allowance per week when you would rather have a joint account.

There's a reason why money is one of the top reasons for divorce. Two people probably had TWO different views on money/saving/spending.

You need to know before you get married if your fiance's idea of financial security = payday loans from Cash O Rama.
