Review of the book The 5 Money Personalities by Scott and Bethany Palmer

I was excited to try get this book and read it because money is source of tensions in our marriage and this book has solutions to help couples fix money problems.

I first figured out my money personality which was Security Seeker which talks about how a person with this personality is predictable. And how this person can be up for an adventure as long as he can plan it. That person has no problem spending money but wants to make sure he is spending wisely. They like to know the future is settled and safe. They are all about planning, consistency, and clear expectations. When it comes to money, the Security Seeker's motto is the safer, the better. He loves a sense of order and predictability.  

And what makes the couples fight is how each person is a different personality and how to manage being different and coming together, and the main point of the book is about to be honest and talk about issues because if we sit down and talk about things honestly and not hide things then the marriage won't have any problems. I really liked this book and would recommend it to my friends, Money can affect anyone, some like to spend more and not care and others like to save more. My husband is more the saver and I am more the spender so that causes fights in our marriage. He wants to save up for a big purchase like a tv. Which we do not need right now.
