[quote=Anonymous]OP, your mistake is in thinking that you haven't merged your economic lot just because you have separate accounts. When we got married, we both had paychecks coming into our separate accounts. We still do. We also have two children; you can't get more "all in" than that. We are tied to each other for life, in a great way. I can buy him presents with the money in my account and he doesn't know how much they cost. I can buy an expensive item for myself without having to discuss it with him. We both pay for meals, childcare, diapers, etc. It works out because we both make a fair amount. When I have extra in my account, I write him a check because he runs the investment side of our finances. We are a smoothly operating economic unit, in addition to being in love and being parents together. You just don't need one joint account to be a single economic unit. [/quote]
