[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We kept our original accounts but made a joint/house account. Pay cheques are deposited into our original accounts, and a $ amt transferred out into the joint/house account where most bills come from. We keep our own separate, but know how much is there and have individual investments with joint outcomes in mind. [/quote] this. separate credit cards, separate savings and checking and investment accounts. mortgage is paid out of the joint account, i pay most of the utilities and daycare out of my own account, so i'm only paying about 1/3 of the mortgage while he pays 2/3rds. we just did a big solar installation that was 12 months financing at 0% interest, so that was also paid 50/50 out of the joint account, we just increased our contributions accordingly. large purchases over a few thousand are discussed, but we each came to the marriage with our own money and only co-mingle as needed. our only debt is the mortgage.
