[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We bothered work full time. We have separate accounts and each manage our own money. We split the bills. Eg. He pays the mortgage, I pay property taxes. He pays utilities, I buy all the groceries. We might "share" on a big purchase,but in general one of us picks up the " tab" and it washes out with other purchases because the other person balances it out. It works for us. I know a lot of couples would be mortified, but really, we don't argue about finances and everything clicks. Neither of us is accountable to the other one if we want to make a personal purchase, either. [/quote] My DH and I are similar, except he's awful at saving so he pays the majority of the bills (mortgage, childcare, most utilities) and I am responsible for ensuring that our agreed amount goes into our shared savings account each month.[/quote]
