| Abstract |
The trend of early marriage in Malaysia is gaining more attention due to the increasing trend of age at first marriage. A happy family is the dream of every couple, but careers are more the focus of young people. The high cost of living is the main challenge. In addition, young couples lack maturity in managing conflicts; social pressures and in-laws; student loans and financial commitments. The challenges of the cost of living can be overcome with planning and strategies to balance the cost of living. |
