Picture this: date night ruined because one of you wants to splurge on that trip while the other frets over the credit card bill. Sound familiar? I've been there, and so have countless couples. Ramit Sethi, the guy behind the New York Times bestseller I Will Teach You to Be Rich, gets it. His new book, Money for Couples, cuts through the noise with a no-BS 10-step program designed specifically for partners navigating finances together.
It's not just about numbers on a spreadsheet. Money fights often stem from deeper stuff—like one partner loving to save while the other chases fun, or mismatched ideas on debt payoff. Ramit dives into these without judgment, using stories from real couples who've turned things around. You'll see yourself in these pages, whether you're the cautious planner or the spontaneous dreamer.
Forget cookie-cutter budgets that feel like punishment. Ramit's approach is about creating your unique 'Rich Life'—that vision of travel, gifts for loved ones, or whatever lights you both up. Key steps include:
Each step builds on the last, with actionable scripts for tough conversations and tools that fit your life, not some rigid system.
Couples who've used this report back less tension and more fun—like planning dream vacations or surprising each other with thoughtful splurges. It's empowering to align on finances because it frees up energy for the good stuff: spontaneous weekends away, building memories, or just enjoying peace at home. And since it's a quick paperback read, you can dive in together over coffee.
