So you'd be happier with a wife that has penis?Not my fault she chose to be born without a penis.
Put your own checks into your own accounts and transfer in your portion of the monthly bills to the joint. Then pay from the joint account. Makes transfers easier with kids accounts too.
LOL You should post more and lurk less.So you'd be happier with a wife that has penis?
We aren't discussing my happiness.So you'd be happier with a wife that has penis?
I agree.LOL You should post more and lurk less.
Separate joint accounts. We can each access and transfer from each account as needed.
Her paycheck goes into "her" account and mine into "mine". Most of the bills come out of "my" account. I grab money as necessary to pay bills.
....So what about every meal when you go out to eat? Every movie theater visit? Every travel where you need 2 tickets?
Do you go through each and every bill and say "Split that, split that, split that" then add it up and take a full amount?
Pretty much what I currently do, it's too much of a pain because my fiancee splits her money into multiple accounts. One for car related, one for home related (mortgage), one for normal expenses, and one for savings.... So yeah, I'm giving in and joining all of hers and making them joint. If necessary, we will create 1 personal non-joint. We don't see that happening at the moment.
I think you are doing it right.
Marriage is joining two people into one. I don't see how one person could be divided into two for money's sake.
since my wife sucks with finances (and she knows this) and i'm good with it, both of our paychecks go into my account. there is another sub-account on mine, that is her own personal account. i take out the money for bills and stuff, then put the rest of the money from her paycheck into her account, and that is her money to play around with and do as she pleases. she just bought some $350 boots that i think is retarded expensive for boots, but it's her money to do what she pleases with. hell she doesn't get why i need a ps4 and xbox1, when i already have a ps3 and xbox360.
then i have a savings account also tied to my account that has some of our savings in it.
i can see all 3 accounts, she can only see her 1 account.
Sounds like she has a reason to do that. She can keep doing it that way if she wants. You can pay your share when you go out, and she can pay her share. Many online merchants allow you to pay with 2 credit cards. In person you can do that, too.
However, I wouldn't do all that work if my wife wanted to maintain 4 different accounts and wanted me to do the money-moving-sufficient-balance checks every time a payment was due. I'd let her keep doing it her way.
Wife and I have a joint account. I pay all the bills and she does the shopping(grocery, kids clothes...whatever) and we don't have any problems. We are in this together and having all the money go into my account then giving her some kind of allowance seems petty and ridiculous.
So you don't believe in marriage?
