Disagree.
If you've been raised to scrimp and save and never buy anything on credit, you're going to have a BIG problem if you marry someone whose motto is basically "Charge now, worry later."
You can communicate about it until you're blue in the face, but if that's your financial style, or unless you're rebelling (i.e. my parents were tightwads, I'm going to spend like Trump) it's awfully hard to change. It's kind of like faking sexual attraction to someone.
The first Mr. 33 and I had major financial issues, and this was when we were 18 & 21. I can't even IMAGINE what a clusterphruck it would have been if we'd gotten married.
