[quote=Anonymous]Joint and separate. We both make the same amount of money so we each put 2k each in the joint transferred from our separate accounts. Everything we do together comes out of the joint, household expenses, etc. The money left over from my pay check stays in my separate account. I can go shopping when I want and not have to ask permission. The joint money also includes 1k that we are saving together every month. Also if one makes more than the other then we do a percentage. For example lets say household expenses and savings together are 3500.00 a month. Person 1 brings home 3000.00 net and Person B brings home 4200 net. Together they bring home 7200. So person 1 would divide their net take home by 7200. So they would contribute 42 percent (1260.00 of their 3000.00) and person 2 would contribute 58 percent (2436 of their 4200). This way things are truly equally and each person still has discretionary income. This works best for us![/quote]
