OP beta - Amrika has spoiled your brain. There is nothing called yours and mine in a marriage. Have a joint account and deposit both of your pay checks and make collective decisions for big ticket items and trust each other to be careful/responsible when it comes to personal shopping.

Lol,Op are you abcd? My wife owns my body, soul and bank accounts and mostly my kids too. ;)In Indian marriage your role is to make important decisions like what should we eat or which ipl team will win. Rest of controls are with wifey
🤣
We just started doing proportion of income for big expenses (rent, bills, etc.). We don’t have joint account, but slowly moving towards that. Our ideal goal would be to determine a ballpark figure of monthly expenses and contribute a proportional amount based on our incomes to the joint account. 50-50 seems unfair given fluctuation in pay
We used to split expenses down to the wire about 3-4 years ago. Now we just have a common pool (joint savings accounts), common goals and a joint budget to stick to that still gives some freedom for unmonitored individual spend. I wanted this joint system far more than the wife (hated the petty splitting) but i think we're in a happy spot now on this topic

Joint account. It's important to agree on the expenses. It's been easy for us as both our spending habits are pretty similar
We have one joint account and that’s it. What would be the benefit of having separate accounts?
