💭 Have you ever believed a money myth that shaped how you handle finances in your marriage?

We all grow up hearing certain “truths” about money—statements passed down from family, picked up from social media, or even reinforced by friends. Some of these beliefs sound logical. Others feel comforting.

But the real problem? Many of them simply may not be true. And when these myths go unchecked, they can quietly influence our financial choices, create tension, and hold us back from true financial freedom as a couple.

In this episode of Money Matrimony, we’re breaking down five of the biggest money myths that many couples believe. From the idea that talking about money kills romance to the assumption that homeownership is always the right financial move, we’re unpacking how these myths shape our thinking—and what we believe.

🔍 Here’s what we’re tackling today:

🚫 "Talking About Money Isn’t Fun & Sexy—It Kills Romance"

🚫 "Keeping Money Separate Is the Best Way to Avoid Fights"

🚫 "More Money Equals a Better Marriage"

🚫 "We Shouldn’t Worry About Retirement Until We’re Older"

🚫 "Home Ownership Is Always the Right Way to Go"

Some of these myths might sound familiar—maybe even a little too familiar. But do they hold up in reality? Join us as we break them down, challenge conventional wisdom, and uncover what truly makes a financially strong and happy marriage.
