Couple counting money

Money use, lack of or abundance of is one of the biggest threat to a fruitful love life and marriage yet it is something easily manageable when simple rules are followed..

1. Don’t judge the suitability of a partner based on their financial strength when you meet, you might miss out on true love because your focus is money. Someone who is with little today can be rich tomorrow.

2. Man, don’t go into debt just because you want to impress a woman. If she will not love you for who you really are, she doesn’t deserve you.

3. Lady, being a gold-digger only cheapens yourself. You have brilliant brains and potential, you can make your own money.

4. Man, don’t be intimidated by a woman who has more money than you. She is looking for a man who will love her, not an ATM machine; she can take care of herself, she sees you as the man who understands her and loves her. Society sees her as just a rich diva but you see more to her, you make her feel like a woman, you give her something money cannot buy.

5. They say no romance without finance, but actually romance can cause financial increase. When two lovers are in true love and focused on a future together, that love inspires them to work harder. Men get motivated by love when there is a woman who gives them a challenge to rise, the two have a greater reward for their labour.

6. Wealth is easy to get if you are both patient and apply financial discipline. The wealthy people are just like you, you two can make it too.

7. A date doesn’t have to be expensive. There are many places, many things you two can do that costs no more or little money.

8. Man, be honest with your woman about your financial status from the beginning and as you love along, she will understand. Many men feel under pressure to always appear financially strong but sometimes dry spells come, allow her to walk with you and love you when you have plenty and also little.

9. Lady, know your man’s pocket and be sensitive. Don’t demand him to give you a lifestyle he cannot afford. Don’t stress him and stretch him just to provide for your superficial life.

15. Don’t marry for money, if you do so, once you get the money your marriage will lack meaning, marry for love.
