Arguing Over Money
Arguments over money are a good indicator of divorce, or so this recent article says.
The main argument is over spending. One spouse spends more than the other one thinks is wise.
If this is a problem in your household, you had better get it resolved. The divorce lawyers will clean up if you don't.

My wife and I occasionally argue over money. I tell her she ought to go out and splurge on something she doesn't really need. She never does. But she lives at Home Depot . . . and vacations at Lowe's. She will buy a new tool without remorse. That's OK with me.
I buy used books on Amazon at least twice a month. She doesn't object. That's because I used to spend $200 at a used book store. Amazon is my methadone. It's cheap therapy for an old addiction. It calms me. She understands.
