Let’s talk about money. Money can be a controversial topic. I have gotten in tons of heated conversations about money with people; mostly my family. It seems like it’s one of those topics like religion and politics that just shouldn’t be discussed over dinner. To that point, money in general is a really uncomfortable subject. Period. Money can be a relationship killer. The having it, the not having it, spending it, not spending it, hiding Amazon boxes from your spouse. All of it can be the cause of major upset between couples, friends, family, co-workers, anyone. In fact, “money issues” is one of the leading causes of divorce. So why is that? What makes us so sensitive about money, that it leads to arguments, hostility, or worse, completely destroying a relationship with someone you love?
