Plot Summary of The Family CFO: A Business Plan for Love and Money
"

Many people marry for love without consideration of merging finance policies. It seems almost crass to discuss money as one is about to walk down the altar. How many individuals hold their nose when prenuptial agreements are assigned or a marriage of convenience occurs? Financial advisers Mary Claire Allvine and Christine Larson make a powerful case that it is not a question of For Love or Money, but instead is for love and money as the biggest issue soon or later confronting couples typically is finance.

This terrific primer goes beyond recommending that couples discus how to merge monetary systems into one cohesive strategy as the book provides specific examples on how to do it. Managing the monetary segment of the partnership can be done within a romantic framework as decisions like housing, children, cars need a sound basis. Other topics like fiscal roles, spending, and debt control and reduction, etc. are also offered as critical topics by this insightful partnering-help book that enables people to live their dream with their dream spouse in a fiscally responsible partnership.
