Bestselling author Chinkee and wife Nove-Ann Tan have a new book to help husbands and wives manage their money and avoid financial stress entitled “Pera ni Mister, Pera ni Misis” published under ABS-CBN Books.
 
“It’s very hard to be transparent about money. The goal is not to fight over money that’s why we made this so that it will be easier not just for couples but also for singles so that they’ll be prepared to deal with money once they get married,” shared Nove-Ann.
 
In the book, the wealth coach and his wife of 20 years addressed the issue on why couples must talk about financial woes. “Marital problem is really painful and costly,” Chinkee said.
 
The authors identified key factors that affect families’ finances—including budgeting poorly, acquiring debts, lending money to relatives, and awful spending habits. They said that couples have to work together in saving up and achieving their financial dreams.
 
Aside from money management, the authors—who first collaborated in the “Happy Wife, Happy Life” book—also cited the 10 commandments to a happy marriage, compiling the lessons they learned together in the past two decades and the ones they witnessed from other couples.   
 
Chinkee and Nove join the exciting roster of authors under ABS-CBN Books. The publishing arm of the country’s leading media and entertainment company, ABS-CBN, continues to bring the Kapamilya experience in print with its extensive fiction, nonfiction, movie-based, self-help, and inspirational reads.
