Financial problem may not be a major problem to some young couple as their parents still afford to support them. Besides for the students some of them also have financial assist like scholarship. It has been discussed that financial problem is not a problem that cannot be solved as the young couple can do part time job to earn extra income. Some studies said for 11 hours of doing extra job they will earn up to RM 2000 in our country. I do agree with their statement although making a career along with looking after your family and household is not an easy thing to do especially during early marriage.

All individuals ultimately have the same cognitive competencies therefore one individual should not be restricted to certain “lower class” profession solely due to financial

    The average wedding is not cheap, but one would think that two recently graduated scholars with degrees could afford this. The Wall Street Journal writes “between the years 1980 and 2000 marriage among the young adults of 25 years of age to adults of 44 years has declined by fifteen percent” (Shellenbarger).
