[quote=Anonymous]I always love the posters who think my marriage is bad and we are not fully committed because we don't merge 100% of our salaries. Thirteen years, two kids and one dog later we are going strong. Anyway, we have his, hers and our accounts. Every December we build a budget for the next year from the bottom up and we transfer what is needed to cover the expenses and a cushion. Because one of us significantly out earns the other we use a percentage of our salary. This yearly exercise-always done with a bottle of wine :)-- really forces us to discuss our short term and long term goals for our family. It may not work for everyone but it works for us.[/quote]
