I even make him check out new yarn i buy for knitting. No secrets or misdirection there. I’ll discuss just about anything with anyone if we leave numbers out. I’ll talk numbers with a few close friends and my mum and brother.

i don’t share more with my other family because I’ve always been afraid they would ask for “loans” if they knew what my husband and i make and how much i have in savings. They used to go to”the bank of Grandma and Grandpa” until that well dried up. I have no interest in supporting people that have never worked a day in their lives at the expense of my own well being.

Right now we have separate finances, so it’s more a matter of what I remember to tell him. All the big items (retirement, student loans, etc.) we discuss.

I don’t mind talking about it but usually other more interesting topics come up 😉

Nothing good EVER comes from hiding details or just not communicating about your finances. My husband and I have a 100% open communication line when it comes to finances. When it comes to talking to our family, and even some friends about money, we are open about that as well. We believe that part of truly loving them is confronting them and hopefully helping them advert financial disasters.
