There’s a lot to think about when you become a married couple. And a lot to pay for; there’s the wedding itself and then the honeymoon. All of this can leave you with a debt to pay off together; your first official financial goal as a married couple.
If you’re lucky enough to have paid for your wedding in advance then you may be saving for a deposit on your first home, or you may even have a home already and be making steady mortgage payments.
It’s the financial responsibilities which married couples share that can become a huge burden in the event of a sudden or accidental death.
That’s why it pays to plan a Life Insurance premium into your household expenses when you’re planning your shared budget. It may seem like just another expense to add to the list but it never hurts to have some security in place.
