Personal finance blog Wise Bread normally focuses on budgetary items, but when they pull out something like this post on how to have a happy marriage, they demonstrate the great lesson that life is not just about money. My favorite lesson:
13. Laugh. My husband loves to make me laugh and is always trying to say the perfect funny thing. (More than 15 years later, I still remember when he started singing "macho man" when we saw a shirtless guy running up the road to Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee, where we had gone to celebrate our wedding anniversary.)
It’s a great read for any couple that aspires to go the distance. Are there any lessons you think they missed? Husbands and wives, unite – let us hear you in the comments!
