What financial skeletons do you have in your closet?

A money confessional from The FT's columnist, Sunday Times bestselling author and Lorraine's money expert, Claer Barrett, uncovering all the things we don't talk about when it comes to money that plague our relationships with others.

Should you share a bank account with the person you share a bed with? Why does your partner insist on splitting the bills 50-50 even though they earn twice as much as you do? Would you be mad if your parents left all of their money to your less successful sibling? And best of all, how do you even begin to talk about these things?

A taboo-busting reveal of the financial dynamics that underpin our relationships with others - our friends, partners and families - How to Talk About Money reveals the hidden money dynamics that bubble unsaid and ruin our relationship and our chance of attaining financial independence. With unfiltered money confessionals, practical scripts and tools to counter the most common money pitfalls and Claer's trademark no-nonsense agony aunt advice, this book makes awkwardness about money a thing of the past allowing you to enjoy the good life with your loved ones.
