It's personal: why money makes couples argue
This week on the AJ Bell Money Matters podcast, Danni and Laura are joined by financial psychotherapist and author Vicky Reynal.
With couples mainly arguing about overspending and not saving for the future*, and younger couples having more disagreements about finances than those in retirement, we wanted to get to the bottom of the trend. Understanding why emotions are heavily linked to money, and importantly how to break cycles makes this a must-listen episode, for those coupled up or not.
*Survey conducted for AJ Bell by Opinium of 2,000 nationally representative Brits of which 1,291 were in couples. Survey completed between 6-10 February 2026.
