How gay couples can get on the same money page
On this episode of Queer Money® podcast, hosts John and David explore a frequently asked question from members of the audience: “How can couples get on the same page about money?”
This episode features Adam Kol, the couple’s money coach, who discusses effective strategies for financial planning and communication between partners. Adam emphasizes starting conversations about general money attitudes rather than specific numbers initially, understanding each other’s financial backgrounds, and building trust over time. He also provides practical tips on setting financial goals, managing differences, and fostering a team-like approach toward financial planning. The discussion highlights the importance of emotional and financial intimacy and offers actionable steps for couples to align their financial priorities.
