Managing Finances as a Married Couple

#ad Be smart when it comes to investing in real estate! I’ve teamed up with Ally to offer a 6-part series, “All Things Finance”, where you’ll get the progressive story of how I built my wealth and the financial lessons I’ve lived and learned along the way. In this episode, we talk about how Israel helped me restore my credit and invest in properties independently, and the financial impact of investing in real-estate both as a married couple and as individuals.

Great content Adrienne! My husband and I are financially free and currently growing a solid retirement plan. It takes a positive and consistency to learn new things, unlearn the old habits ms Important to get a mentor/coach to lead you all the way. It's great to start young too!

It’s the way y’all look at one another when the other person is talking - the love is just oozing out! 🥰💕

Adrienne, I really appreciate that you talk about things that are unfortunately not discussed enough. You are paying it forward to those of us who have similar dreams as you and that speaks volumes. As a fellow Latina, it makes me so happy that hopefully more of us can become homeowners and help our families.

Girl, Preach!!!! I am a Puerto Rican from NYC. This is valuable information. Not only did I buy my own home IN NYC with a 30% down payment, I bought a vacation home in Puerto Rico...ALL CASH!!!! It is a one bedroom apartment in Condado over looking the ocean. This Puerto Rican, right here, never though she could ever own real estate. I had a dream and i learned about assets, money, credit (Good and Bad) and I have not looked back. I am ready to embark on my next investment!!!!

Yes!!!! My husband and I bought our first home the end of 2021, we’re so new to this! When we moved in together in 2014 we were living in the back house of his parents property. Which saved us a lot of money because although we paid rent it wasn’t ridiculous to what renting an one bedroom in LA is now a days. But I was straight up with him and told him… I want to be able to buy a house in the future for us are you onboard? Ever since that conversation he showed me he was serious about it. It took him a couple of years to fix his credit and pay off big debt and it took us a few more years to save enough for down payment/closing costs, etc. It was so cute when he came to me and told me he raised his score by this many points, or he finished paying off this account, etc. We even made it a fun competition of getting the highest credit score. When we got prequalified we were both in the 800s credit scored… Wow! We’re now happy in our first home. Oh we also kept our own bank accounts separate and discussed who pays what but also opened a joint checking for our joint expenses. That works for us.

I am 37 years old who purchased my first home in 2020...my husband and I both have our names as home owner. I had really bad credit when I was in my early twenties (like 500 score) and it took me 5 years to pay back 30k in credit card debt. I am happy to say my credit score is amazing (800/805/770). It's doable people, just make sure your payments are never late.

Home owner 2020!! Woot woot! 🏡

Great video!

I grew up in the hood and watched my mom and my Nana live check to check partially paying off things. I never had any experience with homeownership or even thought that I could. I had to learn how to save money. Adrienne is right about the financial ally. When I got my first job with benefits and 401K, I listened to some older women in the company on how to manage my 401K. Next it was stocks. They taught me how to save and always shared their tips. SLOWLY (want to express the importance of time) I got better with finances and saving. I am not 100% but getting there.
PS Israel spends more. I feel like he buys expensive instruments/equipment needed for his music. Also, Ally Bank helped me get a car back in 2014 so I already know how great they are. This was a good segment.

This is one of the most honest conversations about finances and investing that I've ever witnessed from a celebrity couple. Love y'all and THANK YOU for your transparency!

[ashleymedrano]

I have to say that I really wasn’t that big of a fan of Adrienne in the past but since The Real over the years I’ve seen such growth and such an evolved soul that now I truly love and believe in the advice and content she provides. Thank you for that!

[jaylagibson]

I Isreal spends more money because Adrienne was really excited about it lol. Love you guys and praying for you and just your life!

[vonch]

Viola Davis said when she met her husband her "life got better." I can tell this is true for this couple. This looks like a true partnership.
