[quote=Anonymous]We both work full time. I (wife) do all the finances. I think it's better if one person has ultimate control over it so it's clear who is monitoring to make sure everything is getting paid, money is transferred to the right accounts, etc. We have no spending limits or allowances or whatever. When we get too spendy, I mention it and we both try to cut back for a while. He sometimes does ask me if he can buy something, which I find kind of ridiculous, the item will inevitably be a $20 shirt or something. I always say yes and I never ask him if I can buy things. Our biggest financial challenge tends to be the accumulation of smaller purchases like buying lunch or coffee, so when I get worried, I work harder to make sure we're bringing lunches, etc.[/quote]
