[quote=Anonymous]Well, based on a lot of the posts here about how couples fight about money, you need to talk to your H. 1. If you are both on the same page about money, it's just easier to have one account. Personally, I feel a couple who can maintain a joint account without arguing too much about $ seem to trust each other more. 2. If you have different spending habits and can't come to an agreement, maintain separate accounts, and I'd say put a % of joint income into each of your accounts for spending $. If you need to make it equitable, then put in a % based on your % of HHI. But be aware, if you ever decide to be a SAHM, that will be harder on you. [/quote]
