[quote=Anonymous]The best way to budget is to know all of it-- it doesn't mean that you both can't track things, but you need to know the full financial picture, including taxes. We tried this divide/conquer, but it doesn't work well. I would stay at your same spending rate for a year until you get your arms around bonuses, stock, taxes, etc. We got less excited about DH's big raises when we realized they launched us into a much higher tax bracket and our take home was smaller than we thought.
