Hey, I'm Julie Slattery, and this is a bonus episode of Job with Julie. I'm getting ready to sit down with Scott and Bethany Palmer to learn about what they call the five money personalities.

As we're going to learn, your money personality is how you approach, think, and feel about money. For example, maybe you're a spender or a saver. Maybe you like to take risks with money or play it safe.

Well, when we understand our money personality and that of our spouse, we can begin to see

why and where our personalities are colliding and causing conflict.

So let's jump in.

Hey, welcome to Job with Julie.

And you know, they say that the two biggest areas of conflict in marriage are sex and money. And we talk about sex a lot on this show. And we don't talk about money very often. But today we are going to talk Turkey about money with Scott and Bethany Palmer known as the money couple.

Who gave you that name?

We kind of gave it to ourselves.

We did.

After we had looked and seen all the challenges that there are out there about money and

couples.

And so we just started talking about it and then came up with the name of the money couple.

We actually have about 25 years experience in the financial planning industry.

And it kind of came to a head, believe it or not, we were meeting with a couple very well off.

I mean, as far as the financial pitcher, it was awesome.

I mean, the house was getting paid off. The children's,

you know, college accounts were full. I mean, everything just looked perfect on paper. So

they come in for a review and we're sitting down and there's just tension. Like, you know,

the kind of tension where you're like, did you all just get into a fight on the way over here?

And, you know, do we need a couple minutes and some coffee? And, and so about 15 minutes in the conversation, I finally said, you know, are y'all okay? Like, this just doesn't, something's going on. And she looked at me and said, well, actually, Scott, we're here to split up our assets because we're getting divorced. So Beth and I are like looking at each other and we so weren't expecting it. You know, you always in your brain like a day later say, oh, I should have said this or I should have reacted this way. But I think our faces were just nothing but shock and for. And so Beth gave me what I call the wife tap, which is a kick under the table, which is you

ask them why, which I did because I'm nosy.
