[quote=Anonymous]There is such a chasm between "I don't want him to know I spent $200 on another dress" and "this lack of transparency means we're not fully in". We have joint accts because we started off that way when we had no money. Whoever actually had a few bucks paid for the beers. We moved in together, kept separate credit cards, even though half the charges might have been for thE other person. At the end of the month we were both close to empty. Now we have money, and a budget. We do what we want within our own rules and don't question each other. As we enter yet another year without a raise, we've had to make changes to the rules. No big deal. I can totally see how separate accts could help a loving couple stay within the boundaries they set for themselves. Not my choice, but not my business. As for the Op: any post that starts out "why do Americans do something differently than I do. They must be flawed" [/quote]
