I’m looking to break tradition when it comes to keeping joint finances with my fiance. Traditionally, married couples consolidated. The disadvantages to joining finances.

https://leightpf.wordpress.com/2012/03/12/why-i-picked-an-arm-or-adjustable-rate-mortgage

Leigh's Financial Journey. Why I picked an ARM or Adjustable Rate Mortgage. March 12, 2012. March 11, 2012. Note: This post was originally written and meant to be posted around closing on the condo. I’ve adjusted it so that it still makes sense and in hopes that my thought process helps someone else, even if I didn’t end up closing on the loan. One credit union had ridiculously high closing costs in comparison to the other one (higher origination fee by 1% (! I ran the numbers listed above for a 30 year ...

Leigh – Leigh's Financial Journey

https://leightpf.wordpress.com/author/leightpf

Leigh's Financial Journey. Layoffs: one door closes and a window opens. Note: This is more personal than most posts that I write here. It has been multiple months since the layoff happened now and I’m in a pretty reasonable place emotionally at this point, though triggers do still happen sometimes and publishing this post last week was a trigger in the few seconds that it went live, which is why I held off on publishing it for a week. It is so wonderful to not worry about those in this strange time.

I am also always. The only woman not only in my team, but in the entire meeting. But the average client would still dismiss it. Yes, I know she's the same in both halves. But how my behavior doesn't change just because others perceive it differently. Client: "Vanessa can you ask Joe if you can work late? And when your cowor...

A Millionaire’s Elopement – Leigh's Financial Journey

https://leightpf.wordpress.com/2016/09/22/a-millionaires-elopement

Leigh's Financial Journey. A Millionaire’s Elopement. September 22, 2016. We’re both on the introverted side and neither of us saw marriage as a shiny penny, but as something we were already living day and in and day out at the time that we chose to marry. Eloping thus turned out to be the perfect solution – it meant that we weren’t focusing on a big party, but on choosing to marry each other. We had been talking about marriage for a while now off and on. What did our wedding spending look like? 0 Offici...
