Sharing insights into their financial journey, the couple wrote, "I will be brutally honest but we had a rock start managing money, where one was taught to not interfere in someone else's finances and the other was too pragmatic and organised. And honestly, if we can work a way around and talk at length about money and investments, I am sure any couple can."
They further explained the importance of discussing difficult topics in a relationship: "Because you're not just living with your life partner, you're also building a life with them and that takes addressing a lot of tough topics so that they don't become an issue later on."
