[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand having separate credit card accounts as a married couple where one spouse doesn't have access to another. A while ago, my husband opened a travel credit card to earn us travel points which is fine, but it drove me nuts because he was stacking most of our finances on it (and paying it off), but I couldn't effectively budget. I would think we had x dollars on hand, think we had the means to splurge on something, then suddenly see him pay out a huge amount each time he paid off the card, and realize we weren't as well off as I thought. Cue fighting. I now have access to the same credit card account so we can stay on the same page about where we are financially and we stopped arguing about it.

Plus really, if you are sharing finances, what do you have to hide on separate credit card? That alone would make me wary.

Anyhow, the whole adobe acrobat editing thing is pretty bad - that alone warrants some serious couples therapy. Moving forward, the only way to resolve that is to be on agreement that you have 100% access to all loan/credit card accounts so that nothing is hidden.[/quote]
