kicking it off with, What does it mean to get financially naked? And I'm actually going to get a little bit personal in this section and talk to you a little bit about my own experience getting financially naked. And for me it all started when I was debt free. This photo was taken about eight years ago and I was graduating college and I was dating this man whom I will refer to as Peach and I graduated college step free because I actually made my college decision based on where I got the largest academic scholarship and that could therefore come out debt free. I mentioned earlier in this entire boot camp that I knew I wanted to move to new york city when I graduated. So that was a way that I thought I could make it possible. The thing is that guy, right? There wasn't debt free and eight years later things got pretty serious. We ended up getting married and I knew that he had student loan debt. But there was a conversation that we had to have time and time again and kind of come back to ...
this idea of how do we get financially naked? How do we decide to tackle this situation? So first, let's talk about why you even need to get financially naked in the first place. Is this really all that important? Well, when it determines your financial compatibility, it has been researched that money is often a really strained cause in a relationship and is often an underlying reason for people to get divorced or break up. So yes, it is very important for you to be talking about this early on in order to determine if you are financially compatible with each other because it is a huge stressor in a relationship and how somebody deals with money and talks about money could be a potential red flag for you. Now, I'm not talking about debt specifically, I will keep getting into that idea, but there could be worrisome behaviors and even veering more towards financial abuse or financial infidelity, which we'll talk about later today. Like I said, debt doesn't need to be a deal breaker. It wasn't for me, my husband has student loan debt, but how people handle their debt and deal with their money. That's really the indicator that I want you to take away when you're talking about getting financially naked.
