[quote=Anonymous]I'm the bigger earner in our relationship, but my wife comes from money. However, she keeps her family money separate from the money she earns at her job. Our paychecks go into our personal accounts. We have them set up so that a percentage of each check goes into our shared account. The shared account is where we pay for all household expenses. However, our mortgage for our main house is paid for by my wife with her family money. I pay the mortgage on our vacation home with my own money since it is something that I wanted. When we buy a new car, we use our own money. When we buy a car for a kid, we each contribute an equal amount. Each kid has their own bank accounts that we fund equally. Each kid also has educational accounts that are funded by my ILs. We've never had any fights or issues over money. [/quote]
