Marriage and Economy:

Março 30, 2009

Economy is very important.  Expenditure must be in proportion to the income. If you are to be happily married, you must live within your means.  When you are just starting out in married life, it takes courage and self-discipline to abide by this principle, more especially when your income is small.  And yet it is much easier to live within your income at this time than later, when depths have have heaped up.

Genuine love should help you make personal sacrifices for each other and for your family.

Economy helps you to be realistic in many ways.  For example, it makes you see how human profits may vary from one family to another according to what income each family has; according to the skill of those who direct the use of the income; according to the tastes and desires, whther simple or extravagant, of the family. Because of these factors, many a home with a modest income gets greater happiness out of its revenues in money and services than do other homes with higher incomes.
