[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ignoring the wacko judgmental "WE ARE ONE AND TRUE" bunch....

We basically looked at all our monthly bills and came up with a number to cover that plus a decent cushion. And even though our incomes aren't exactly the same, we put in the same amount. (On a HHI of about $230k, we each put in $3k a month)

It's not "whacko." And, by the way, how dare you call me judgmental when you're the one name-calling? Look down at your finger that's pointing at me. What do you see? Oh yeah, three point back at you.

The best way to run a happy marriage and healthy financial household is to think of yourselves as a single financial unit. The separation of finances means you're not really "all in" on your marriage. It really is as simple as that. I acknowledged that there are some people who think this way. But by and large, they're not very happy, and they are prone to petty score keeping and arguments about money.[/quote]

I'm impressed you are posting to the internet from your home in 1952.
