There are four main areas of money that children need to learn:

1. Work. Money comes from work, not from other people, the government, or dumb luck. From an early age, your kids need to feel that emotional connection between work and money. That's why my wife and I paid our kids commissions, not allowances. You work, you get paid. You don't work, you don't get paid. It's true for parents, and it should be true for kids.

2. Save. Teach your kids early on how to save up for purchases. If they learn how (and why) to save up for a toy today, they'll know how (and why) to save up for a car or house tomorrow with no debt.

3. Spend. Let your kids have some fun with their money and experience the awesome feeling of buying something they want with money they saved. If you keep it all in the piggy bank and never let them enjoy it, they'll either grow up into miserable old misers or they'll rebel and become crazy, debt-ridden spenders once they hit college.

4. Give. Giving is the most fun you can have with your money. Nothing beats making a waitress's day with a $100 tip out of the blue. Just make sure your kids give their own money. If you hand Junior a dollar to drop in the offering plate on Sunday morning, he's just a courier for your money. He needs to know what it feels like to really give out of his own pocket.

Learning these four areas (especially giving) brings your kids a depth of confidence and character they'll never have otherwise.

Marriage is about unity. But when couples keep their money separate, they act like roommates instead of a team.

This can lead to:
— Lack of trust
— Money fights
— Hidden spending
— A weaker marriage

Couples split their money for all kinds of reasons:
"I don't want to fight about money."
"I make more, so I should control it."
"We have different spending habits."
"I don't want to lose my independence."

But these are just symptoms of a bigger problem.

Marriage isn't 50/50. It's 100/100. That includes your money, decisions, and future. If you don't trust each other with your finances, you have a relationship problem, not a money problem.

Here's how to get on the same page about money in your marriage:

Combine your bank accounts.
— No more "mine" and "yours." Just "ours."

Create a budget together.
— Every dollar has a job, and you both decide.

Set shared financial goals.
— Debt-free? Homeownership? Early retirement? Dream together.

Communicate regularly.
— Have weekly money check-ins so there are no surprises.

When you and your spouse get on the same page financially, you'll build a stronger marriage and a better future together.
