Often these fears can lead us to make decisions that might not be understood by our spouse or which may lead them to feeling hurt or resentful.<\/p>\n<p>When you address these fears with your spouse &#8211; who may have fears of their own about your relationship, the kids or identity type of fears &#8211; you can put a plan in action to resolve them together.<\/p>\n<p>Perspective is so very important. Realise that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>More important than running out of money is your health and your relationships with friends and family.<\/li>\n<li>Overcoming, not succumbing to problems that will arise, is the mark of a successful retirement.<\/li>\n<li>Your retirement savings are meant to support the both of you, both as a couple and as individuals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-2204\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trc-gorod.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/couple-by-the-street-light.jpg\" alt=\"couple-by-the-street-light\" width=\"346\" height=\"519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trc-gorod.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/couple-by-the-street-light.jpg 675w, https:\/\/trc-gorod.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/couple-by-the-street-light-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 346px) 100vw, 346px\" \/>You\u2019re individuals, not clones of each other<\/h2>\n<p>Remember why you and your spouse fell in love.
