Just Married

YOU THOUGHT planning the wedding was difficult? It was just the dress rehearsal for the more daunting task of marrying your financial lives.

According to a survey by the Association of Bridal Consultants, roughly two-thirds of newlyweds say money is the No. 1 source of conflict during their first year of marriage. (Problems with in-laws rank a distant second.) For some couples, money becomes an ongoing problem: Numerous studies have shown that it's the most common reason cited for divorce.

So do yourself and your new spouse a favor: Get your financial house in order right away.
