[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have been married for over 35 years, and DH and I have always kept out money separate. We split costs, usually by category. For example, I provided the down payment for the house and he paid the mortgage. [b]He is free to spend money on things I wouldn't--a fence around the yard is a recent example--and I can spend money on things he wouldn't (private trainer for an adult child with some medical issues).[/b] It helps that we are both generally frugal and that our incomes have been remarkably similar over the years.[/quote] It’s still the same money.
