My fiance is great with emotions...not so much with finances. Why can't it be both?

There are classes to teach finances. Having a solid emotional base is not taught but part of you. Be thankful, and go to a budgeting class with her.

Great pic. Here's the deal: she, like so many other Americans, have a tendancy to spend to compensate for something...usually as a way to cope with some type of depression or just as an escape. She may need more than just a budgeting class.

~~~Dear Miss, OP, It Is Quite Obvious That Your Fiance Is Not In Love With Money.

Take your money and stick it where your heart once was.

Hey, the only way to survive in this world is with money. Unless you want to do the homeless thing.

Everything in life is a trade off. If the sum of what your fiance has to offer is insufficient to satisfy you, you are free to break the engagement and look for someone "better". Make the best call you can. Here's how *I* would feel if I were in your situation. Financially there is a minimum standard below which one cannot go. It's pretty risky to marry a deadbeat or someone who is not meaningfully employed, regardless of their "potential". But so long as that minimum standard is met, anything over that is desirable but not essential. However, emotions just get better and better, and (for me at least) have a far better "return" in increased happiness than more money.
