[quote=Anonymous]We have a HHI of around $1m (pretty equal between DH and I) and we still give a head's up about discretionary purchases over around $200 (it used to be anything over $100, but has crept up in amount over the last 10 years as we are just busier and can't mention everything). We don't keep a budget, and don't spend much. It's just the principal. Stuff like household repairs -- I don't feel the need to mention (but usual do, out of interest). Stuff like medical/therapy, I would never mention as those are must-haves. If DH were starting a business venture, i'd expect it to be run by me regardless of a penny spent on it. [/quote]
