We tend to choose our partners based on shared values, in-common traits and other similarities, marriage researchers say. But money-management styles are one case in which opposites do attract, said Jenny Olson, an assistant professor of marketing at Indiana University who studies couples’ financial decision-making. We are drawn to people who can check and balance our own rigid rules about money, Olson said. Someone who feels they are too focused on saving and not focused enough on using money to enjoy life might look for a partner who can help them feel more comfortable with an occasional splurge. #money #finance #date #dating #Relationship #wsj #wallstreetjournal #thewallstreetjournal
