[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i do not understand separate accounts within a marriage. You stated that you both have a personal credit card? For what? How do you budget? How do you save? If one partner has an unexpected need (car maintenance or refrigerator broke), who pays? In my house , an unexpected bill requires that the entire household needs to tightened it's belt for the month or two. Multiple accounts seems like extra work (well, for you anyway). I would lobby for 1 joint account and give it a trial run for 6-12 months.[/quote] Sometimes it's just easier to look the other way when a spouse decides to help his family and it's just not worth fighting about. In my case, my husband wants to buy tickets for his mom to travel to her nephew's graduation and whatever else I wouldn't agree with.[/quote]
