Which is better in your early 20’s: Being financially savvy or being relationship savvy?

November 6th, 2012 Leave a comment Go to comments

I’ve read a lot of personal finance books and blogs and I think I’m in a good place there. However, my dating and friendship abilities totally suck. I keep telling myself that there will be time for all of the interpersonal stuff later, but compound interest is the young adult’s best friend.

Thoughts?

Financial savvy is most important. The 20s are a time for growth and forming your world view. Making sound decisions will benefit you tremendously. The relationship aspect of it will come and it will be even better if you are ready and have yourself in order because you will attract a similar person into your life.

    I think you’re on top of it!

    The good news about good financial management is that it doesn’t have to consume all your time. Smart choices (budgeting, controlling spending, planned investments) can be kept up with a couple hours attention each week. That leaves plenty of time to socialize.

    Financial savvy is much better. You have your whole life to get a relationship but your credit report will follow you your whole life.

    Being financially savvy is your first responsibility, in that way you may offer a better life to your future relationship and be in a better position to have a family.

    Financially Savvy, most women spend too much time worrying about men in our lives and most of the time they are not even worth it. Keep doing what you are doing and you are guaranteed to have a stable and comfortable future as for men I find that it is when you are not looking that the right person for you comes along.

    Trust me I know.
