I was reading this article about different people’s views in life when it comes to money and business in general. One thing that was kind of interesting was the mentality on how you should try to accomplish everything before you get married and essentially starting a family.
What I personally noticed from my own experience in regards to this is that most everyday people say that you should get married first and then build your fortune together as it only makes sense to do so with the person you are attaching yourself with to go through all the success and hardships together. Whereas most business oriented people I found have a more systematic approach to it.
It was kind of interesting when I read that as just a few days ago I saw this report on how apparently the average age that people choose to have kids has gone up over the years with the main reason being that they want to make sure finances are taken care of ahead of time.
In my opinion, I think this comes down to belief mostly where you either see marriage as like a fairy tale type of lifestyle or a partnership of some sort. In this case, I think it makes more sense to try and establish your business first for the sake of balance and stability as by then you should be able to better leverage your time to focus on your next phase in life so to speak. Of course, either way has worked wonders for many.
