Hey,
Ive been married for 2 years now & myself + other half still keep very separate finances. Joint account for all joint bills where we both t/f money into from our own current accounts. But apart from that everything completely separate (savings/loans etc)
Now I like it the way it is but a lot of my friends look at us strange when a bill comes for say a meal out & we each take out our wallets or one of us says 'can you pay for me & I'll pay you back'. I suppose this does look a little scabby?
No kids so i suppose that would make a difference.
Basically question is - how do other people do it.
