be frugal and ecologically conscious - reuse, recycle etc †
Oh ... and when choosing a partner delve a little deeper into reasons, priorities etc if the object of your attentions has not got a career going well, has not saved any money and lacks assets such as a car and depending on age, house and retirement insurance. It is best to judge behaviour rather than words - there are big talkers and idealists who are just overjoyed to marry someone who will provide them with a life time of financial support while they swan around doing their thing!
mmm....if your partner is much older than you, you need a plan for when he retires so you don't spend decades supporting him on a low wage and of course living in poverty only to retire yourself to care for a frail aged partner.
