[quote=Anonymous]We are similar to OP. Portion of our paycheck automatically goes into joint checking and all joint bills (mortgage, credit cards groceries, dinners out, vacations, investments) are paid from there. The remainder goes into our individual account for individual hobbies, gifts for one another, any individual travel, etc. When we had vastly different salaries, we contributed to joint checking in proportion to our salaries. Now we make about the same and contribute equally. It works for us. We like sharing all joint expenses and having a small portion of our earnings reserved for individual spending so there’s no judgment about a trip with college friends, an expensive spa, etc. [/quote]
