Once you finish paying for college you could reduce your life insurance.

A smart couple with a healthy financial relationship is always talking about money and how they're handling it. If there's a medical emergency or a job loss, talk about it. If there's a windfall, talk about it. Your financial situation is a constantly changing thing.

Sometimes your gut is right. And sometimes not.

Money may not buy love, but fighting about it will bankrupt your relationship.

I'm keenly aware of how important it is to set a good example. You may not think that your kids are paying attention to you, especially with something like money, but they probably are.

I understand why many are still poor or struggling to make just a middle-income lifestyle. I'm a fiscal conservative, but I also have compassion for people who make financial mistakes.

I usually find that my gut doesn't steer me wrong when it comes to my money!
