Money and Love: Starting Out: Relationships and Children

In their book “Money and Love,” Stanford GSB Professor Emerita Myra Strober and alumna Abby Davisson, MBA/MA ’08, discuss the process of choosing a long-term partner using their “5 C’s” framework.

They emphasize the importance of clarifying the kind of person one is seeking, focusing on building connections rather than relying on a checklist. Communication plays a vital role, with active listening and engaging in important conversations about shared values, future plans, and financial considerations.
