Discussing Money is like Tasting the Forbidden Fruit

Talking about death of your significant other seems far easier than discussing bad debts and credit history. The very mention of your spouse’s finances will send them furrowing their eye-brows. Asking about their finances is an indirect sign of distrust and no spouse can tolerate it in the least. So, it is extremely crucial to approach this topic with dexterity. One must understand that financial worries can have repercussion on both the spouses. So, do not go ballistic when asked about your finances. If you have a clean history, then you need not worry. If the situation is not so, then be brave enough to own up to your bad debts and come clean.
