<prompt> Human: I am planning to get married after 2 years. So in the mean time I would like to plan for future like saving money for wedding, saving enough money for atleast 2 years, getting a house, having a reliable health insurance plan etc. Many married couples have a lot of problems - esp. with money. I do not want to be among them. So, any advice for people like me?EDIT: Thanks for all your replies. Honestly, I was expecting a lot more financial advice than relationship advice. But, most married men and women say that communicating properly is more important for a good marriage than saving for future. Ive never had this insight, so Ill just go with what experienced people say.  <response>: The most important think you can do right now is talk to your future spouse about money. Make sure you each understand your view of money, how much you want to save vs. spend at this point in your life. My wife and I are both savers. We wont go spend a lot of money unless its something we really value. We go out to eat a bit, mostly with friends as a social thing. But we dont go to bars, dont buy expensive electronics, etc. We have some friends married to each other that dont communicate well about money. One time, the wife bought tickets to a concert 80 without letting the husband know, so in retaliation he went and bought himself a new gadget 100. The issue with the couple I mention above isnt the fact that they should spend money: money exists to let you acquire things you need or want. The issue was the poor communication between the two of them. The best cure for relationship issues of all sorts, not just about money is stronger communication. Check in with your partner often about what you want to spend and why. The people who have relationship issues due to money is because they cant communicate effectively.
