Money Talk Matters, LLC releases The Ten Commandments for Black Marriage and Money Success

March 24, 2010 - PRLog -- Denver, CO -- Close to 42% of African American adults have never been married, and by their early 40s, 31 percent of black women have never been wives, compared with 9 percent of white women, 11 percent of Asian women and 12 percent of Hispanic women. Statistics may show those numbers, however, there is a community of African Americans all across the country encouraging others in committed relationship to celebrate the joy of marriage.

Money is one of the top reasons for divorce. Whether it is a lack of money, money mismanagement or a communication breakdown about the finances, it is time to establish marriages for financial success. In honor of Black Marriage Day, Dr. Taffy Wagner, releases The Ten Commandments for Black Marriage and Money Success video.

The Ten Commandments for Black Marriage and Money Success is a video compilation of married couples, wives to include a divorced wife and a widow sharing commandments, lessons if you will that have been learned throughout their marriages. Within this group, there is over 70 years worth of marriage experience and these participants are making a difference in the lives of others with their individual organizations and companies.

In order for marriage to be successful, couples must have life sustaining skills to handle situations when they arise which include financial skills. It is not the time and place for money to remain a “taboo” subject. The time has come for engaged couples, newlyweds, husbands and wives to be proactive about money instead of reactive when financial challenges or emergencies happen. It’s time to think about long-term and not just short-term answers in order to leave a legacy for families.
