I cannot stress this enough, do not move in with a man until you have known him for a year and a half, you're engaged, have a wedding date and have a savings account to leave if you need to.

Never, ever, ever be a stay at home mother. Unless you are rich in your own right. Think it's hard to leave him? So much harder with kids and no money.

For sure. I think it’s doing yourself a huge favor securing a career, possibly even before dating seriously. It is so nice to just know that if anything were to fuck up, it wouldn’t be your finances!

I am immensely, incredibly lucky that the women in my life (and the men too, surprisingly) all put this lesson in my head as soon as possible.
