Levine highlights the importance of financial honesty in a relationship, stating that it doesn’t necessarily mean all finances must be merged into joint accounts. He notes that there are various reasons, including tax implications and differences in wealth or income, why couples might choose to keep some accounts separate, especially if they marry later in life.
