[quote=Anonymous]If he's seeing money in the account and then just spending, try setting up another checking account that your income gets routed through first. Set a weekly or biweekly budget for discretionary spending, and set up an automatic transfer from your new clearinghouse acct into your discretionary spending acct. Pay bills, pay "yourself" (ie savings), etc. out of the clearinghouse acct without your husband ever touching it. If he sees less money in the acct with the debit/ATM card, it sounds like he's the kind of guy that will adjust his spending automatically. [/quote]
