[quote=Anonymous]I’m Chinese American. My husband is white. We have 2 kids and did not combine finances but have a joint checking account and contribute the same on a monthly basis that we pay shared credit card expenses and mortgage out of. He makes maybe 15% more than me. When we have bigger expenses we each contribute what we can on top of monthly and don’t keep score. If your wife is from China and only moved here for high school or college I could maybe see her having the provider mindset but if she is American like me that’s just BS. Either way, you need to get on the same page or as others have said do not have kids. She will shame you for not being able to afford the best private schools. The only way I understand a wife account is if she doesn’t work and stays at home with kids.[/quote]
