Id be wary of credit card debt too- It reflects on the person's life skills. However if they were actively paying it down and learned from their mistakes I would be ok.
ReplyDeleteBut, do you even have that conversation early on? or when it is too late???
Right - when DO you have that conversation? As a society, I think we hesitate to talk about money. But really, most fights in relationships/marriages happen because of money disagreements! Life skills - that is exactly what it is about, and values. If the person likes to spend money on expensive hobbies, then I'd wonder if our values really align.
