If you are not careful money can be the root of a lot of problems so we are turning to kurt pearson to help us out to find out if money is creating problems in your life. How can we make money and relationships work well . Kurt communication is key. We begin to create expectations and the situations in our mind that are not actually accurate. Those can build and we let Tensions Mount. Then we have tensions coming out verbally. Its better to beat that to the punch and communicate early about the issue of money to make sure we are staying current and present. Especially as tensions are going on as it relates to money. In together, what should they be talking about . Kurt communication should center around key tension points , usually that relates to debt. Everyone has a philosophy and that can create tension. How we manage the cash flow, where is the money going. Everyone has priorities and passions related to using money properly. Some of the more proactive decisions about life goals and what we want to move toward as a couple. Those are three crucial areas. Focusing on the facts is important. Eric you dont want to mislead them down the road or you will be in trouble. Kurt exactly. Sometimes all ball gets built and we are stuck in the circular pattern sometimes a wall gets built. One of the key issues that can bust us through the wall is to the cash flow statement, net worth statement, some of the basic stuff ive talked about. That is an important part if those can be looked at without judgment. And expectations. Eric there will be some tensions and disagreements, how do you get through that . Kurt setting up a weekly time that is specific to look over financial documents i have alluded to can be one way. Opposites usually attract so theres usually one person thats really into the facts and gathering facts and organizing. It is important to make sure that person is not alone in that process. The other individual needs to come alongside and tell me what you are seeing and noticing. Setting up a regular weekly time for that i think is one crucial way to bounce through. Financial. Ats all this nonsense about balls . Pink balls, blue, yellow, red. Its hard to keep the whole thing straight. And all these socalled deals . Well, they come with a lot of deal breakers. Like when you leave the city the signal goes weak. U. S. Cellular built a network to give you a stronger signal where the other guys dont. And as for deals . Hows 300 back for every line you switch . 300 no ball nonsense. Get 300 per line and a stronger signal, weather is never more than five minutes away, only on kcci 8 news this morning.

Kurt pearson is here to discuss frank good morning, welcome back, 6 43. Yesterday was just about perfect, minus the wind. 68 was the old record set in 1981. We made it up to 71. Temperatures waking up this iowa falls, right around 40 degrees this morning. Carroll, you are at 56. Some big changes in the 8 day forecast. Eric if you are not careful, money can be the root of all the problems in a relationship. Kurt pearson is help desk here to help us out. How can we make money and relationships Work Together . Kurt we begin to create expectations and a situation in our mind that sometimes are not accurate, so those can build up. We let the Tensions Mount and we end up with those coming out verbally. Much better to beat that to the punch and start communicating very early about the issue of money to make sure we are staying current, staying present eric so whether they are moving in together or getting married, what should they specifically be talking about . Kurt of course munication should center around some of those key tension points. Usually that relates to how we are using debt. Everyone has a philosophy of that and back and create some tension. How we are managing the cash flow, where is the money going. Everyone has priorities and passions related to using their money properly. Of course there are some of the more proactive decisions about what are our life goals and what do we want to be moving toward as a couple. Those are three crucial areas. Focusing in on the facts is a very important part. Eric you do not want to mislead them down the road. Kurt exactly. Sometimes when that wall gets built and we realize we are stuck in the same circular pattern in a relationship as it comes to money, one of the key focus on the facts. That feels with the net worth statement, some of the stuff i have talked about four years. That is an important component because those facts can be looked at without judgment and without creating that expectation. Eric even if you are communicating well, there is going to be some tensions. How do you bust through that . Kurt setting up a weekly time to look over some of the specific financial documents, that can be one way for people to do it. Opposites usually attract so there is usually one person who is into the facts, gathering them and organizing them. It is important to make sure that person is not alone in that process. The other individual needs to come alongside and say, tell me what you are seeing, tell me what you are noticing. Setting up a weekly time is one eric if you have any questions, financial.

Dicaprio plays legendary frontiersman hugh glass whos left for dead by his own men in the dakota wilderness circa 1823. He is absolutely raw and riveting in this sweeping saga of revenge and redemption. Dicaprio is winless in five previous nominations, but six will be his lucky number. Brie larson is my pick for best actress in room, a harrowing tale of a mother and her 5yearold son jack, played by Jacob Tremblay who are held captive by jacks father in a squalid shack they call room. Award nomination and she will bring home the gold in a heart tugging and heartbreaking performance. In the toughest category of the night, my choice for best picture is spotlight, the true story of the boston globes Investigative Team called spotlight that uncovered widespread child sex abuse by catholic priests in the Greater Boston archdiocese. It won the globe, the 2003 Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting and is my pick to win best picture. Of course, nothings for sure.

Alyx in commitment 2016, the results from yesterdays democratic primary in South Carolina are in. Hillary clinton secured a big win in the palmetto state, defeating rival Bernie Sanders by a wide margin. To break down the results and look forward to super tuesday , our political analyst Marc Sandalow joins us live from washington. And marc, Hillary Clinton won nearly triple the votes of Bernie Sanders yesterday. Is the race over . Marc not quite, but it is this is why the democrats added nevada and South Carolina following iowa and New Hampshire because you need to add more diversity. So far, Bernie Sanders has not shown he is capable of winning any voters outside of folks who are 30 and under. In South Carolina, Hillary Clinton won four times as many africanamerican votes and five times as many women. Bernie sanders has polled Hillary Clinton to the left with his liberal message and may stay into the future. Unless he shows something more on super tuesday, she will be declared the presumptive nominee. Alyx we are looking forward to tuesday, the biggest date of the primary season. Now as she said at her victory speech, this now goes national. We have one third of the country voting on thursday. Marco rubio needs to win somewhere. If he loses, he will be over 17 or over 16 heading into the next contest. That is not credible in terms of an alternative. Alyx donald trump has a lot of momentum. Can his rivals catch up . Marc they can, it just gets more difficult. An online magazine looks into all of the candidates statements. Hillary clinton, almost a quarter of the times they have made statements on the campaign for donald trump, it is 78 . Virtually all of the claims they have checked for donald trump are not true. The map to stop him delegate wise gets very tough. Alyx i want to look at voter turnout. Republicans are turning out in record numbers. Should democrats be worried . Marc they should. Hillary clinton has not fired up voters the same way the republican field has, but there is an entertainment factor. Donald trump was waving a water bottle around yesterday saying, this is marco rubio. He had rubio saying that donald trump ought to sue somebody because of the way his face looks. These are amusing comments, but they are not likely to get a whole lot of support for either of these candidates when voters start trying to figure out who chief. Alyx Marc Sandalow live in washington. Russian Officials Say the death toll in the russian mining incident is climbing. A methane gas leak triggered three explosions. Among the dead are five rescue workers. For miners were killed and 26 others were trapped at the time of the first blast. 80 were underground.

She had just been sworn in friday. Two other officers were also shot and taken to the hospital. And they found a woman killed in connection to the shooting. Authorities say the suspect is a military serviceman who is now in custody, and expected in court monday. Back here in iowa, hundreds gathered to show their support for fallen officers at the annual cops black and blue ball. Last year 124 officers died in the line of duty nationwide.

The closures and detours luckily will not start until after the morning commute at about 9 00. The project is expected to be done by fall. 7 37 on your sunday morning, waking up to a much warmer morning. Frank by the afternoon, it will not be as warm as yesterday. We have a frontal system to the north and west trying to slide through the midwest, bringing in sunshine will not be as abundant as it was yesterday. It helped to warm us up. Notice some light shower activity extreme northwestern iowa. I think some of that may crews through the state, but we will stay dry. A bit cooler off to the north behind the frontal system, down to the south and west, a bit warmer. 54 degrees, that is our temperature right now. The wind is a little breezy. By this afternoon, you make it to 60 degrees, but the wind switches directions. Alyx a des moines woman built a seven foot tree in her living room to honor her ancestors. 77yearold velma turner spent two months building it using real leaves and tree bark. The tree spans eight generations and traces her Family History its especially meaningful now, being black history month. Several of her relatives were slaves. Velma says seeing her ancestors names on the leaves gives her a sense of belonging. I just wish that i could have been there with them. Thats what happens to me when i look at this. Alyx velma says she plans to take the tree down because she is worried about the warmer weather running the leaves. Still ahead, relationships and money, they go hand in hand. Kurt pearson sits down and discusses the important topics, plus pascuzzis picks. Alyx frank good morning, 7 41, a beautiful shot from our woodward webcam. Notice how we have some sunshine mixing in with the clouds, but the clouds are overtaking the sunshine. Yesterday, we made it up to 71 in des moines and lamoni. It was a recordbreaking day, our old record 68 degrees setback in 1981. 54 in des moines, ames at 49, 43 is at 48. If you have outdoor plans today, do them. If you do not, make them because it is going to be great. If you are going to be barbecuing, make sure you have everything weighed down because it will be a little windy. Eric if you are not careful, money can be the root of a lot of problems in a relationship. We are turning to kurt pearson from Compass Financial Services to help us out. How can we make money and relationships Work Together . Kurt communication is one of the major keys. We begin to create expectations and a situation in our mind that sometimes are not accurate, so those can build up. We let the Tensions Mount and we end up with those coming out verbally. Much better to beat that to the punch and begin communicating very early about the issue of money to make sure we are staying current, staying present with the issues as the tensions relationship. Eric so whether they are moving in together or getting married, what should they specifically be talking about . Kurt a very good question. Of course, communication should center around some of those key tension points. Usually that relates to how we are using debt. Everyone has a philosophy of that and that can create some tension. How we are managing the cash flow, where is the money going. Everyone has priorities and passions related to using their money properly. Then of course, some of them are proactive decisions about what are our life goals and what do we want to be moving toward as a couple. Those are three crucial areas. Focusing in on the facts is a very important part. Eric you do not want to mislead them down the road. Otherwise you will be in trouble. You have to be honest. Kurt exactly. Sometimes when that wall gets built and we realize we are stuck in the same circular pattern in a relationship as it issues that can bust us through that wall and into the next place is to have a renewed focus on the facts. That deals with the cash flow statement the net worth , statement, some of the stuff i have talked about four years. That is an important component because those facts can be looked at without judgment and without creating that expectation. Eric even if you are communicating well, there is going to be some tensions. How do you bust through that . Kurt setting up a weekly time that is specific to look over some of the specific financial documents, that can be one way for people to do it. Usually in a couple opposites , usually attract so there is usually one person who is into the facts, gathering them and organizing them. It is very important to make sure that person is not alone in that process. The other individual needs to come alongside and say, tell me what you are seeing, tell me what you are noticing. Time a regular weekly time for that is a crucial way to bust through. Financial. Weather is never more than five minutes away, only on kcci 8 news this morning. Frank welcome back, 7 48 on your sunday morning, and yesterday was pictureperfect. Everyone loved it, even the dogs. Raider was just begging to go outside and play fetch yesterday. 49 in ames. Down to the south, knoxville at 52. It is a great morning to be outside, a little windy with wind out of the southwest, at times near 15 to 25 Miles Per Hour. It will be another windy afternoon. The wind at times could gust as high as 30 to 40 Miles Per Hour, not as much sunshine as we saw yesterday. There is a light impulse along this frontal boundary that is moving toward the dakotas. I think any precipitation we see here would be well north of highway 20. Notice down to the south, the warmer air is getting pushed out of the state, close to 70 today and kansas city, low 70s in st. Louis, and cooler to the west. We have a frontal system that will be sliding through the state, changing our wind around two more north westerly on the backside, and eventually it will be cooling us down. At 7 00 this morning, we show the clouds, most of the rain is off to the north. I think we see a mostly cloudy day today. Another system slides down, we could see a rain snow mix.

Dicaprio plays legendary frontiersman hugh glass whos left for dead by his own men in the dakota wilderness circa 1823. He is absolutely raw and riveting in this sweeping saga of revenge and redemption. Dicaprio is winless in five previous nominations, but six will be his lucky number. Brie larson is my pick for best actress in room, a harrowing tale of a mother and her 5yearold son jack, played by Jacob Tremblay who are held captive by jacks father in a squalid shack they call room. This is larsons First Academy award nomination and she will bring home the gold in a heart tugging and heartbreaking performance. In the toughest category of the night, my choice for best picture is spotlight, the true story of the boston globes Investigative Team called spotlight that uncovered widespread child sex abuse by catholic priests in the Greater Boston archdiocese.
