12 Intentional Money Rules Couples Who Never Overspend Follow
We never overspend — and it's not because we earn a lot. In this video we break down the 12 intentional money rules that stopped us from silently draining our joint account: the raise lockout, banning "we deserve this" spending, the social dining agreement, occasion pre-commitment, the full picture review, defining what "we can afford it" actually means, the subscription audit, the convenience spending cap, the home upgrade moratorium, the 72-hour veto rule, the friendship spend audit, and building a shared future picture together. These are the habits that actually work for couples who want to stop overspending on a normal income — and in this video we show exactly what they looked like in practice. If you and your partner keep wondering where your money went, want to stop lifestyle creep before it starts, or just need a system that keeps both of you aligned without fighting about money — this one is for you.
