The eight actions listed on the homepage—Insure, Earn, Combine, Own, Communicate, Plan, Save, and Invest—are the non-negotiable components of healthy marital finance. When done in combination, these actions promote emotional security, relational intimacy, and a mathematically solid financial foundation. Every couple can achieve this, and the Maritous financial coaching program will show you how to do it yourself. (To learn two more highly recommended actions for the very best marital finance results, send an email to forest@maritous.com.)
