[quote=Anonymous]OP - we're 35 and HHI is $250k and I get where you're coming from. Before I got married I used Quicken but didn't really have a "budget" because I live well below my means and there was always plenty left over. Now that I'm married, I wanted to have a joint account that we contribute to proportionately. For example if our monthly expenses are $3000 and I make 2/3 of our take home pay, I contribute $2000 a month and DH contributes $1000. To do this, we made a budget in Mint - basically pay for everything with a credit or debit card. Once a week or each month check that it categorized everything correctly. Then after 3-4 months it will tell you what your monthly average income and expenses are. Then you can adjust your budget if it is out of line with your goals. [/quote]
