In the third episode of season 2, Chrystina and Beth D'Andrea from Plum Financial Planning have a conversation about what it looks like to merge financial lives with someone when you get married. Should you merge accounts? Do you need a separate savings account? What kind of questions should you be asking yourself and each other as you forge together in your partnership? 

All of these questions are answered (and more) in this hour long conversation.
