Love & Dating Does Cost a Thing

I will be the first to admit that Valentine’s Day is most definitely a Hallmark holiday. I’ve spent many a Valentine’s Day myself buried in a box of chocolates at home pretending my cat, Sofi, was my date. But showing someone you love, even just like them, is about more than a day. And let’s be real, dating, wooing, courting, falling in love, whatever you want to call it, it can be expensive. In this episode, Kristin Myers, Editor in Chief of The Balance is here to share the best ways to afford the cost of dating. BTW, in a recent study they did at The Balance, millennials spend on average $69 for first dates, yes, really! Kristin is also sharing how to create a perfect date for a fraction of the price when you should talk about money with your honey and the impacts of inflation on your wallet. Plus, we both get a little personal sharing some of our favorite dating stories. This episode is sure to make your heart swell.
