Are You a Victim of Financial Infidelity?


The author in this article presents a very interestin­g take on fidelity in marriage. The idea of “financial fidelity” is a good one. So many of my divorce clients arive at the decision to end their marriages over money issues. As a divorce profession­al, I appreciate the advice to have a moderate response with financial “cheating” is discovered­. Many of my clients opt for a postnuptia­l agreement when such happens as a way to prevent the marriage from disintegra­ting. Having a written agreement with clear understand­ings of the financial boundaries and what is expected from a spouse can have a huge impact on the success or failure of the marriage going forward. I also support having the prenup discussion prior to marriage so that a marrying couple can have the money conversati­on. This prevents misunderst­andings and incorrect expectatio­ns from developing down the road.

Negotiating Over Waffles

Every now and then I will get involved in a negotiation where one of the parties struggles with the concept of negotiating and sharing.  Such a person wants all of what he or she wants and is simply unwilling to compromise or share in any way.  Obviously that makes my job harder.
