This book isn't just for saving failing relationships, I look forward to recommending this book to friends who are just conscious about finances. Money and emotions go hand in hand, so its only right you learn to navigate this area to help maintain a great relationship with your spouse. Learn before this ever becomes an issue. This book has some Christian references, but it wasn't oversaturated with it. Bits and pieces, nothing crazy.

Interesting concept. I liked the concept and how they identified the different money personalities. My wife and I discussed and I feel this will help us relate to each other better. The examples on the book were just ok, often were extremes. Not a lot of depth. The authors do not come across as experts in there field. The seem like everyday nice people.

5 money personalities
- Spender - enjoys spending money, over does it on Christmas, has hard time flying budget
- Saver - penny pincher, coupon clipper, lives below means, drives used cars
- Security Seeker - wants to make sure the future is secure, spends money, but invests for future,
- Risk Taker - Entrepreneur, invests in startups, crypto, enjoys the thrill
- Flyer - someone who doesn’t think about money much , has a care free attitude towards money

We each have a primary and a secondary money personality.
I am a Security Seeker, Risk Taker.
Jess is a Security Seeker, spender

I didn’t know this book was going to be mainly targeted at married christian couples, but still took away some info from it.
