It’s our final installment of our Do It Yourself Bailout series. Takeaway contributor Beth Kobliner has taken us on a financial journey; she’s helped us learn how to invest the right way, trick ourselves into saving, and understand the art of negotiating. Today, we talk about a big piece of your financial and personal life: your spouse or partner.

Sandra Wang is a marriage and family therapist, as well as a certified financial planner and she is also a certified Divorce Financial Analyst. Wang says it’s important to meet in the middle when it comes to money and your partner.
