Those 5 questions aren't wrong but I would think the biggest question(s) to ask before any of those is how much savings do you have and what is your income? Second for me is what are your expenses? And what are your spending habits? If a fiance/fiancee answered favorably to those 5 questions but spent recklessly, that could be a deal breaker for many. Also, future purchases and spending/budget should be discussed.

Lastly, how do feel about juggling a plethora of credit cards for maximum cash back?

Those are all excellent questions to discuss before getting married, or possibly before even getting engaged. Money fights or issues is one of the top causes of divorce, it only makes sense to be on the same page before marriage. My spouse and I had many conversations before marriage and even did a mock combined budget before marriage and officially combining finances.

My wife can't stand this lol... She doesn't mind that I do it, but she doesn't want to be involved - beyond me changing which card is linked to her Amazon or filling up her car with gas for her. It's just a fun game to me.
