In this episode, Glen sits down with listener Katherine, who’s been with her husband for 25 years and disagrees with Glen’s usual advice around combining finances with your partner. She explains why separate accounts work just fine for her long-term relationship and how she and her husband have adopted a flexible money system. They unpack when joining finances makes sense, when it doesn’t, and what actually matters when managing money as a couple. Glen and Katherine touch on:

👉🏻 why separate finances can still mean shared goals

👉 what long-term financial teamwork looks like

👉🏾 how they handle mortgage, bills and savings

👉🏽 how she's teaching her kids about money

👉🏽 their differences (and similarities!) in perspective on managing money with a partner
