3 Money Lessons from 17 Years of Marriage

Subscribe to Podcast

Today’s episode is a little different and a little extra special. Melissa and I just celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary, so before the kids woke up, we hit record and reflected on what we’ve learned about marriage, money, and gratitude.

We kept it short, sweet and simple. Just two people talking about what’s helped us stay grounded and grow together over the years.

Here’s what we touched on:

• Being on the Same Page: Why communication and shared vision matter more than perfection. Melissa shared some tactics we use to stay aligned.

• Focus: How staying focused on the main thing or goal (even when it’s counter-cultural) has shaped our life and finances.

• Have Fun & Be Grateful: Why money is simply a tool, and how we’ve learned to enjoy it without taking any of it for granted.

We wrap things up by sharing what we’re most grateful for about each other. (Fair warning, it gets a little sappy.)

Whether you’re married, single, or somewhere in between, we hope this short episode encourages you to align your money with what matters most.
