Season 2 Episode 10: The role of finances in gray divorce

Divorce rates have been steadily declining since the ‘90s for all age groups except for one – the baby boomers. This phenomenon of rising rates is referred to as gray divorce, and one of the main reasons for the rise is financial differences. In this episode of Edelman Financial Engines’ Everyday Wealth™, Jean and wealth planners Andy Smith and Isabel Barrow explore what these financial differences are, including financial infidelity, and how a planner can help.

Ms. Chatzky receives cash compensation for acting as host of the Everyday Wealth podcast and for related activities and therefore has an incentive to endorse Edelman Financial Engines and its planners. That compensation is a fixed sum paid on an annual basis; and reimbursement for certain expenses. The amount paid each year does not vary, is not based on show content or any results-dependent factors (e.g., popularity of the show).
