In a recent survey, commissioned by ForbesWoman and the National Endowment for Financial Education and conducted by Harris Interactive, one in three Americans (31%) who have combined their finances admitted lying to their spouses about money, and another one-third of these adults said they’d been deceived.

Nancy Chemtob says many of the people she’s worked with didn’t have a clue about their finances because they allowed their partners to take full control. It’s much easier to lie about debt and spending if the other person isn’t involved. Warning bells should go off if you ask to share money responsibilities and your partner insists on doing it alone.
