10 Things To Consider Before Comingling Finances
- By

Is there total trust?
It’s easy, and common, to brush trust issues under the rug when all that is at stake is our hearts. It’s not “all” of course, because heartbreak is miserable, but you can fully heal a broken heart. You can’t fully heal a destroyed bank account. If you don’t completely trust your partner and haven’t wanted to face that truth, you’ll need to before comingling finances. There is no room to politely lie and say you trust someone when your money is at stake. That’s your rent. That could be a down payment on a home. That could be your retirement savings. This is no time to put those things at risk all because you didn’t want to admit that you don’t fully trust this person.
