Instead of addressing the root of the problem, all to often money is seen as the solution in the form of a new car for the partner, a better or more expensive school for the children or a new house, all of which results in increased financial pressures on the Executive and the relationship.

Unfortunately, in the vast majority of cases the problem is not addressed until it becomes acute or even critical.
