[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people have totally joint accounts.  But a lot of people married later in life and had been managing their own money for years before they met.  It can be hard to all of a sudden merge all your money when you have two different spending/saving styles.  Easier for some couples to have some joint money and some individual money.  I'm single and 39 so if I married, I'd do it this way - I will never be comfortable with an 100% joint account.  (and I have assets and a child to protect.)[/quote]

something is wrong if you are still single and 39 (trust issues) and it will show when you are married with your seperate accounts[/quote]

Something is wrong with YOU, 2nd PP, for being obnoxious and quite frankly, stupid as shit.

To the first PP, I married at 37 and had my first at 38!  We have two joint accounts, but one is where his pay goes, and mine goes into another account.  From his pay, we handle most of the household expenses.  With mine, I pay for tuition, childcare and activities - and sometimes expensive clothing items, but that's rare!

We invest together.

So there are several ways of handling this.

2nd PP, I just have to add again how dense you are.  1st PP has a child!  Did you see that?[/quote]
