Pittsburgh man tells Dave Ramsey he wants to marry his girlfriend of 8 months — but balked when she suggested a prenup
Mike, 36, from Pittsburgh called into The Ramsey Show for advice on his relationship's next steps. He told Dave Ramsey, 'I want to propose to my girlfriend, but we disagree on finances.' Mike quickly expanded that the couple discussed their potential future together — including his intention to combine their relatively similar assets — devolved when she requested a prenup in order to keep their finances separate. 'I see no reason for [the prenup],' said Mike. Dave Ramsey and Jade Warshaw agreed. 'So, you're not ready to propose,' said Ramsey. Don't miss Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 6 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) You don't have to be a millionaire to gain access to this $1B private real estate fund. In fact, you can get started with as little as $10 — here's how Getting on the same page before marriage Mike recently sold a piece of land and will walk away from the deal with $180,000. He's made a budget and plans to use those funds to pay down the mortgage on his own home and be mortgage-free within four years. As they've gotten more serious, Mike broached a conversation about his intention to combine their finances in the future. Eventually, once they potentially marry, he wants to buy a bigger home with his now-girlfriend. His girlfriend, who owns a rental property of her own, doesn't want to combine finances at all, even though their assets are similar and she doesn't come from a wealthy family. Instead, she wants the prenup to outline individual assets and keep their money separate. In fact, she represents 50% of American adults who are open to prenups and hers would represent one in five marriages that actually have one, if she were to go through with getting it. However, after learning the couple has only been together around eight months, Ramsey advised against jumping into an engagement right away. 'You've got some more work to do on this relationship before it becomes a marriage.' Ramsey pointed out that, 'The number one cause of divorce in North America is disagreements over money.' With that sobering statistic in mind, Ramsey suggested the couple get on the same page about money before taking things any further. According to Ramsey, disagreements about money generally reflect a deeper misalignment of values, which is important to work through before getting married. 'I think you scared her,' said Ramsey. She might not be ready to combine her finances due to other fears, particularly around completely trusting a spouse with combined finances. 'What it sounded to me like what she was dealing with was fear-based and it wouldn't have mattered who the guy was,' said Warshaw. But when considering marriage, Mike and his girlfriend still have work to do. Read more: Want an extra $1,300,000 when you retire? Dave Ramsey says — and that 'anyone' can do it Financial red flags that can predict a breakup Financial disagreements can put strain on any relationship. In fact, a recent survey from the New York Post found that 32% of Americans are uncomfortable discussing finances in their relationship. And 44% worry that discussing finances with their partner will lead to disagreements. If you cannot openly discuss finances with your partner, it's often a red flag. When sharing your life with someone, the ability to openly dialogue about big picture issues, including money, is critical. When a partner actively avoids talking about finances, it can put an ongoing strain on your relationship. After all, anytime you need to make a household money decision, the lack of communication could quickly lead to an issue. In Mike's relationship, Dave already spotted one financial red flag: this couple has mismatched goals. Mike wants to pay off debt and interweave their finances. In contrast, his girlfriend wants to keep her assets protected, just in case. This pre-made exit strategy represents a red flag in Ramsey's eyes. Another potential red flag is when your partner hides financial information from you (the extreme end of this is financial infidelity). While you might not talk about money on your first date, you'll want to put your cards on the table as the possibility of marriage enters the relationship and as managing shared finances becomes a part of the equation. If one or both partners can't bring themselves to share their financial situation, it could represent an impasse for the relationship. And it can take multiple conversations and time to work through this new chapter together in a thoughtful and strategic way. Another issue can be being on different timelines. For example, wanting to be mortgage-free by 45 while another individual is okay with delaying this milestone if it means travelling and enjoying life a little more. One option is to enlist the help of a pre-marriage counselor — a suggestion Ramsey made to Mike. Building a joint value framework together that both parties can agree on and make decisions with can help this couple step into their marriage with confidence and not fear.

Atalanta Talisman Only Wants Inter Milan – But Could Change Stance If Decisive Offer Not Accepted
Ademola Lookman only wants to join Inter Milan this summer, but could change his stance if Atalanta do not accept the Nerazzurri's next offer. This according to today's print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. Inter Milan are pushing to sign Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman. The Nigerian international is their top target in attack this summer. The Nerazzurri have already made an offer to Atalanta for Lookman. La Dea have rejected the initial bid, which Inter have not yet increased. However, the player himself reportedly wants to join. Widespread reports indicate that Inter's first offer to Atalanta was for €40 million. Atalanta, on the other hand, are reportedly holding out for around €50 million. Ademola Lookman Only Wants Inter – But Could Change Stance If Offer Not Accepted BERGAMO, ITALY – MAY 25: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta BC looks on during the Serie A match between Atalanta BC and Parma Calcio 1913 at Gewiss Stadium on May 25, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy. (Photo by) A key driver in the talks between Inter and Atalanta is the stance of Ademola Lookman himself. The 27-year-old has made it very clear that he wants to join the Nerazzurri. He already agreed personal terms on the move prior to Inter's first offer to Atalanta. And for now, Lookman still feels the same way. He is insisting on joining Inter. However, the Corriere dello Sport note, Lookman could start to waver if Inter can't wrap up a deal soon. The Nerazzurri will submit a new offer this coming week. They will raise it to around €42 million plus €3 million in add-ons, the Corriere anticipate. If Atalanta feel this is high enough, then Lookman will get his wish – a transfer to Inter. However, if La Dea continue to balk at Inter's offer, then the Nigerian international could very well consider other possibilities.
