书籍简介

我们誓言无论贫富都要彼此扶持。我们为子女牺牲奉献，我们孝敬父母。因为在真爱和家庭事务中，金钱无关紧要，否则后果不堪设想。对吗？

那么，为什么在私密的咨询室里，金钱却成了现代伴侣的矛盾根源之一？为什么它被认为是父母、子女和兄弟姐妹之间家庭疏离的主要因素？为什么“父母银行”会为了追回他们后悔借出的贷款而诉诸法庭？

在《金钱：用户指南》一书中，劳拉向我们展示了如何储蓄养老金和了解投资。这一次，她深入探讨了真正复杂的问题——以不带评判的视角审视是否存在与我们所爱之人分享金钱的“正确”方式，以及其他人私下里都在做什么。这是一本我们都不愿承认自己需要的书。

你们如何决定谁来买单，或者哪些东西应该存入联名账户？你的伴侣是慷慨大方还是控制欲强？如果大部分首付都是父母出的，这房子还算我的吗？你愿意花多少钱生孩子？我们应该什么时候给孩子、父母、兄弟姐妹、社区成员钱？他们应该还钱吗？其他人是怎么做的？为什么我们不知道？为什么问这些问题会让人觉得如此尴尬难堪？

这是一本通过讲述他人现代生活中遇到的金钱和人际关系困境的真实故事，提供个人理财建议的书。

劳拉采访了财务顾问、财富管理专家、婚姻咨询师、媒人、哲学家、宗教领袖、殡仪馆负责人和离婚律师，力求深入探讨那些比如何理财更关乎我们财富和幸福的根本问题。

We vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money’s irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?

So why – in the privacy of the therapy room – does money emerge as one of the biggest causes of tension for modern couples? Why is it cited as the major factor in family estrangement between parents, children, and siblings? Why is there a trend for the ‘Bank of Mum and Dad’ to go to court to retrieve loans they regret handing over?

In MONEY: A USER’S GUIDE, Laura showed us how to save into a pension and understand investment. This time, she delves into the really complex stuff – a non-judgemental examination of whether there is a “right” way to share our money with those we love, and what everyone else does behind closed doors. A book that none of us want to admit we need.

How do you decide who picks up the bill, or what goes in the joint account? Is your partner being generous or controlling? Is this house mine if your parents paid most of the deposit? How much are you prepared to spend to have a baby? When should we give money to our kids, our mum and dad, our siblings, our community? Should they pay us back? What does everyone else do? Why don’t we know? And why does it feel so agonisingly awkward to ask?

This is a book of personal finance advice told through real stories about other people’s modern money and relationship dilemmas.

Laura speaks to financial advisers and wealth managers, marriage counsellors and matchmakers, philosophers, religious leaders, funeral directors and divorce lawyers, to get to the bottom of the questions that can be much more fundamental to our wealth and happiness than where to put our savings.
