Financial intimacy is about the sharing of financial information that affects each married partner. It's central to a committed relationship. Each partner is legally entitled to the information. Financial intimacy is not about romance. It's about real life. The consequences of not knowing about your marital finances can be devastating if you are ever faced with widowhood or divorce.

Financial Abuse is a Woman’s Problem
Many people Google the phrase ‘financial abuse’ and find their way to my website. I can’t tell how many of the searches are by women, but I’ll bet most of them are.

A Warning for Online Advertisers
If you block what I’m reading with a pop up ad, I’ll never buy your product.
If your ad precedes the video I want to watch, I’m off the site in a flash …and I’ll never buy your product.
If your ad starts with loud audio the second I get to the page, I’ll leave the page immediately to get away from you.
If your ad jumps up and down, waves, jiggles , beeps or flashes, I’ll boycott your product forever.
If I'm not on your subscriber list, you go straight into junk mail.
Show a little class, don’t intrude on my concentration, assume I’m as smart as you are. I’ll be so grateful for being treated like an adult that I might reward you by buying your product.
