- Jacob 2:27-28…27 Wherefore, my brethren, hear me, and hearken to the word of the Lord: For there shall not any man among you have to save it be one wife, and concubines he shall have none; 28 For I, the Lord God, delight in the chastity of women. And whoredoms are an abomination before me; thus saith the Lord of Hosts.
- “Secrecy surrounding the family’s financial situation often begins between spouses. Many wealth holders don’t tell their spouses how much money they have or how it is invested. An Open and frank discussion is essential if spouses are going to work together on inheritance planning and eventually talk with their children. Sharing financial information with your spouse makes sense because this is the person with whom you are going to discuss sharing the information with your children.” Wealth in Families Third Edition (Charles W. Collier) Page 31
- “People don’t think about the question of whether a spouse without money ought to have his or her own money so they don’t have to ask for it,” said Dick Watson. “I ask wealth holders-typically husbands-if their spouse has money of their own, and the response is often, ‘No, but she can have whatever she wants.’ I suggest he give his wife a significant amount of money so that she doesn’t have to ask. This is often a transforming experience, changing the power and trust in the relationship for the better.” Wealth in Families Third Edition (Charles W. Collier) Page 32

We had a little misunderstanding, Elder Hanks & I, so we ended up talking for 2 hours. He’s a stud. I’m learning a lot about myself because of him. I need to watch my pride and my way to share ideas. I usually share my ideas almost obligating the people. It’s because I talk with a lot of confidence and really feel I’m right. It’s something I need to watch.” – Clinton Brown Missionary Journal
