Does your husband blow all your hard-earned money on frivolous stuff? Or are you the one who spends more money in your relationship?
It turns out that even when it comes to habits of spending and saving, opposites attract.
Reuters: "Surveys of married adults suggest that opposites attract when it comes to emotional reactions toward spending," Wharton's Scott Rick and Deborah Small and Northwestern's Eli Finkel said in the paper.
