Javier (22) and Marco (22) are young, ambitious, and financially disciplined—but the future they dream about together is being challenged by how they handle money today.
They earn a combined income of $157,000, already have more than $60k invested, and live in New York City with shockingly low fixed costs. But despite their impressive financial habits, they’re stuck in a cycle of miscommunication. Javier wants to be cautious now to make big moves later, while Marco wants to split everything 50/50, even if it slows down their long-term progress.
With their income gap and no shared plan for spending, saving, or investing, can they plan for a wedding and build their future together?
