[quote=Anonymous]Hybrid. Separate accounts, that the other is a joint owner, but neither has a debit/credit card for the joint account. Bills are evenly split. Any large joint expense is evenly split. Large meaning greater than 1k. I REFUSE not to have my own money, for two reasons: 1) I've seen too many friends stay in a failing marriage due to lack of funds. Or their spouse does more discretionary spending (via expensive hobbies), and they end up with some level of resentment, 2) my husband likes to give extra money to his mom. His mom can't manage her own funds, even though she has them. Now that we have separate accounts, I'm not as bothered by his gifting. P.S. We have similar annual earnings. [/quote]
