Maria Avgitidis: 我认为在准备约会时,讨论清楚对你来说什么是财务兼容性非常重要。对我而言,财务兼容性最终体现在生活方式上。衡量生活方式的公式是你如何看待时间的价值加上你如何看待金钱的价值。因此,在约会时,可以通过提出一些关于未来计划和价值观的问题来展开金钱对话,例如是否计划生育、是否支付大学学费、是否购房以及如何处理意外之财。这些问题需要有答案,而不是临场反应。此外,还可以考虑如果赢得彩票,梦想家园在哪里,以及谁来照顾年迈的父母。通过分享梦想和幻想,可以更轻松地展开金钱对话,并了解彼此的价值观。 Jean Chatsky: 我认为财务问题在人际关系中非常重要。研究表明,夫妻之间最常争吵的事情是金钱,而且越频繁地争吵金钱,离婚的可能性就越大。因此,在约会中讨论财务问题至关重要。最初的金钱对话实际上不是关于金钱,而是关于希望、梦想、目标和责任。通过这些对话,可以了解彼此的世界观、道德观和同理心,以及如何将金钱作为实现理想生活的工具。
