Amongst the list of good economic decisions to make personally, getting a good partner is one of them although it is often exempted from the list and not mentioned.
I came across something that should have been funny and a joke, but I could not ignore it. Something about a woman bragging about making her husband a millionaire, and anyone hearing it would have been impressed at how virtuous and smart she is, but when asked what the man was before she met him, she said a "multi millionaire". Apparently that is the joke, but a serious look at that will tell you that the person you choose to spend the rest of your life with as a man and a woman will affect your finances.
A good man/woman will increase and help you multiply the resources you have, a bad man/woman will diminish your resources. This is why choosing should be done carefully.
That joke hits hard because there’s a lot of truth in it and the person you pick to build a life with actually does effect more than just your emotions, it affects your financial stability and future too. A helpful and financially aware spouse can help you grow and build together but the wrong one can pull everything down. People typically neglect this portion when talking about money decisions but it’s actually one of the largest ones you’ll ever make
