In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the incredibly important role that money can play in a marriage. While many couples focus on the wedding and the checklist of what needs to get done before the wedding day, few realize the importance of discussing personal finances and how they view and value money. Episode Links At the top of the episode, Alexis mentioned an article written by Jake Hays for the Pew Research Center titled “8 facts about divorce in the United States.” The purpose of the study was to look at causes for the very high divorce rate in the U.S. and, in particular, why so many divorces happen so quickly - often within the first five years of marriage. Money was the reason behind many of those failed marriages. Dr. White referenced a recent string of articles from The Wall Street Journal that are related to today's topic of marriage and money. They discuss things like financial infidelity, why men and women choose to often have separate finances, and how what we value when it comes to money can be a factor. You can find those articles below. You can also find the National Endowment for Financial Education study that Dr. White mentioned HERE. Julia Carpenter, “What We Fight About When We Fight About Money.” Gunjan Banerji, “Inside the ‘Financial Infidelities' That Tear Marriages Apart.” Allie Jones, “She Almost Lost Everything in Her Divorce. Now Women Are Learning From Her Mistakes.” Finally, for those interested in some pastoral wisdom when it comes to both marriage and money, we'd encourage you to check out the many marriage and finance series that Dr. White has delivered at Mecklenburg Community Church.

Key Topics Covered:   1. Why Marriage Can Matter Financially Kevin and Christian frame marriage not just as a personal commitment, but as something that can improve financial planning. They explore how being married or in a civil partnership can help couples build, protect, and transfer wealth more effectively. The conversation keeps a light tone, but the planning points are very real. 2. Inheritance Tax: The Biggest Financial Benefit of Marriage One of the clearest benefits is the transferability of inheritance tax allowances between spouses. Kevin explains the standard nil rate band and the residence nil rate band, which can combine to create up to £1 million of allowance for a married couple. This makes marriage especially relevant for families with children, property, and growing estates. 3. Business Property Relief and Married Couples For trading business owners, Kevin highlights the role of Business Property Relief (BPR). He explains that this can create a significant inheritance tax advantage when business value passes through a married couple. This is especially relevant for established business owners thinking about long term transfer planning. 4. Why WealthBuilders Sometimes Asks, “Have You Thought About Getting Married?” In Family Wealth Fortress reviews, relationship status matters because it affects tax planning and transfer options. Kevin jokes that suggesting marriage for tax reasons may not sound romantic, but it can be a practical decision. The wider point is that family structure has a major impact on what can be protected for the next generation. 5. Smaller Tax Benefits Still Add Up Christian raises the Marriage Allowance, where unused personal allowance can be transferred in some cases. Kevin notes this is modest, but still worth using if eligible. He also highlights Capital Gains Tax benefits, since assets can be transferred between spouses without an immediate CGT charge. 6. Marriage and Business Planning Kevin shares that spouses can sometimes be employed in a business or made shareholders, depending on what is appropriate. This can support more efficient profit sharing and tax planning within the family. He also shares a funny story from his early mortgage broking days about briefly employing his wife. 7. Borrowing Power and Pension Benefits Marriage can support mortgage affordability where couples combine income and borrowing strength. Kevin also highlights a more overlooked issue: final salary pensions often include spouse benefits that may not apply in the same way without marriage. He shares a sad family example where a pension died with the member because there was no spouse to receive it. 8. The Main Downside: Divorce Risk Kevin is clear that marriage can also be a “wealth divider” if relationships break down. Divorce can be one of the biggest destroyers of wealth, which is why alignment, communication, and planning matter. This is where Wealth Dynamics and joined up conversations can help couples row in the same direction. 9. A Farewell to Christian and What Comes Next Kevin reflects on seven years of WealthTalk and thanks Christian for his contribution. Christian shares his gratitude to listeners and to Kevin for the wisdom he has gained over the years. They introduce Tracy Hilliard and Bimbi Fernando as upcoming guest hosts who will help continue the podcast.   Actionable Takeaways If you are married or in a civil partnership, review whether you are fully using the inheritance tax benefits available to couples. Check whether Marriage Allowance or spouse to spouse Capital Gains Tax transfers could help your situation. If you have a final salary pension, make sure your beneficiary nominations are up to date. If your relationship status has changed through marriage, divorce, or bereavement, review your will, pension nominations, and wider plan. Don't ignore inheritance tax if your estate may be over £1 million, planning early matters. Use marriage as a prompt for better financial conversations, not just shared spending.

They explore practical tools like creating a “spending plan,” setting regular money conversations, teaching kids biblical financial principles, and cultivating generosity together.

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with my friend Rachel to talk about something that got wildly controversial when I posted about it on social media - shared finances in marriage. You guys had SO many strong opinions about where your money goes, who manages it, and whether couples should combine accounts or keep things separate. We're getting into all of it - the psychological and emotional baggage we carry around money, how our upbringings shape our financial decisions, why some women hide purchases from their husbands (and why that's actually financial infidelity), and what it really means to build trust through your finances. Rachel shares about her book "The Money Mandate" and we talk about everything from the spiritual agreements we make around money to why your husband probably can't be your mother when it comes to noticing you need new clothes. This conversation is honest, practical, and probably going to challenge some things you've believed about money in marriage. Whether you share everything or keep it separate, this episode is going to make you think differently about what financial intimacy really looks like.

Most couples think they're “broken” because they argue about money. The truth? You're probably more normal than you realize—you've just never been taught how to talk about money without going to war.In this 12 Days of Giving episode, I sit back down with financial therapist Ashley Quamme to walk through a real couple we'll call Mark and Mary—late 30s, three kids, decent income, solid marriage… until money comes up. He's the anxious saver, constantly bracing for the layoff that may never come. She's the practical spender who wants to make memories with their kids and not live like everything is on fire. The money isn't the problem. Their stories about money are. ashley-2-2025Ashley takes us into their backstory: Mark's single-mom, count-every-penny upbringing and Mary's “we're fine, we don't talk about money much” childhood. We break down how those early money memories hijack their adult arguments—why he feels panicked when they're not maxing accounts, and why she feels controlled and judged when he questions holiday spending. None of this is “just numbers.” This is nervous systems, fear, and unspoken expectations running the show.Then we get into the actual work: how Ashley helped them stop avoiding each other, set up structured money dates, and build rules of engagement so they're not trying to solve their financial life at 9:30 p.m. half-asleep and pissed off. We talk about what to do when you hit a stalemate, why “we'll talk about it later” usually means “never,” and how they finally landed on a savings target that calmed his anxiety without killing all joy for her.This is not some dramatic, on-the-brink-of-divorce situation. This is a normal couple that refused to settle for “fine” and chose to do the work before things blew up. If you and your partner are mostly good—but money convos feel tense, defensive, or like the same fight on repeat—this episode is your mirror and your playbook.

What if your money fights aren't really about money? In today's episode, I'm talking with financial therapist Nathan Astle about the real reasons couples clash over spending, saving, and debt — and how to get back on the same team. Nathan explains what financial therapy is, how power dynamics show up in marriages, and why guilt can help but shame keeps us stuck. If you've felt alone, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start, this conversation will give you hope and a plan.Resources mentioned:Financial Therapy Clinical Institute (FTCI) — free resource library (Money Timeline and Money Story worksheets)Money Minus Shame Podcast with Nathan AstleFinancial Therapy Association — find a financial therapist directoryConnect with Nathan on LinkedInYou Might Like: Get the FREE Goodbye Debt Tracker!

In this deeply personal episode of The Build Show Podcast, host Matt Risinger opens up about his 20-year business journey, sharing hard-won lessons about debt, financial struggles, and the path to recovery. As he reflects on three significant anniversaries - 20 years in business, 10 years debt-free, and 15 years since accumulating massive debt - Matt provides a candid warning to fellow builders about the dangers of speculative building and overleveraging.Matt recounts his early days starting Risinger Build in 2005, moving to Texas without connections and turning to spec homes to build his reputation. What began as calculated risks quickly spiraled into financial catastrophe during the 2007-2008 recession, ultimately leaving him $300,000 in debt and on the verge of bankruptcy. He shares the painful reality of paying $7,000 monthly for four years to dig out of debt, the strain on his marriage and family, and the spiritual journey that helped him persevere.This episode serves as both a cautionary tale and an inspiration, demonstrating how contentment, faith, and disciplined financial management can lead to recovery. Matt emphasizes the importance of avoiding the trap of comparing yourself to clients' lifestyles and the dangers of using debt to fund desires rather than necessities.

Money can be a major source of tension in marriage, but when couples invite God into their financial decisions, He provides wisdom, peace, and unity. In this episode, we discuss how to work side-by-side with your husband and seek God's plan together—because when finances are managed with faith and teamwork, they can strengthen your marriage instead of straining it!"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: if either of them falls down, one  can help the other up." Ecclesiastes 4:9-10a
