When couples confront class differences while making major financial decisions

My romantic partner and I want to buy a house together but we have completely different relationships to money based on our families' financial histories, and every conversation about the mortgage turns into an argument about values we didn't know we disagreed about. We love each other but we're discovering that building a life together requires navigating class differences we haven't really faced before.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared financial commitments can surface fundamental differences in values and security that love alone cannot reconcile without intentional conversation.
