Description

Jason is a 40 y/o COO. Megan is a 34 y/o flight attendant and they’re about to have a baby. Megan wants to take 1 year maternity leave—Jason is stressing about how it will affect their finances. While they have a $3M net worth, they’re both in credit card debt and their lack of joint finances makes it hard to make a plan.
