Loans from various sources

Owing money in the form of loans or credit card payments which continues to accumulate automatically results in the tension about the family’s future. With such a disturbed mood no individual can enjoy mingling with others nor can they appreciate other’s good qualities. You should try to manage the issue and have to be mentally stable that marriage is not the main cause for the fiscal stress you are facing now and it is the external circumstances that have led to this stress. You can overcome this situation easily by discussing with your spouse by taking a list of all expenditures and prioritizing those that need to be met first and match the same with the income and mutually search for the source to settle the issue.

Fiscal pressure

One of the partners may try to have a complete control on every pie. When an individual wants to establish his dominance through money in a family, it leads to hatred and annoyance. In certain cases, one partner will be responsible for fulfilling the entire monetary requirements of the family right from the electricity bill, educational expenses, debt obligations, to purchase of furnishings or other fixed assets. This exerts a huge financial burden on the spouse which will initiate disputes. A spouse out of too much enthusiasm might misguide their children and spoil their financials by purchasing luxury toys and frequent gifts for them. It might reduce the disposable earnings of the family and hence arguments may arise destroying the marriage.

Think positively and keep in mind that you are always capable of earning more money, which requires willpower and the desire to live together. Be sure about not spending even a single pie on unnecessary products or services. Prepare a budget and follow the same and each one should realize that both are involved in leading a peaceful life for making your family and marriage peaceful and successful.
