[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, based on a lot of the posts here about how couples fight about money, you need to talk to your H. [b]1. If you are both on the same page about money, it's just easier to have one account. Personally, I feel a couple who can maintain a joint account without arguing too much about $ seem to trust each other more.[/b] 2. If you have different spending habits and can't come to an agreement, maintain separate accounts, and I'd say put a % of joint income into each of your accounts for spending $. If you need to make it equitable, then put in a % based on your % of HHI. But be aware, if you ever decide to be a SAHM, that will be harder on you. [/quote] Totally agree with this statement.[/quote]
