Do you seperate your Income from your spouse?

hello riani, I always share all my salary to my wife. That is very important to manage all income. After all collected to my wife, we can make planning for this month. We much have spare money for saving money at old time

It is important for both of you to be financially accountable to each other. Depending on your circumstances, it may be necessary for you to separate your income. Normally, coming up with a monthly budget and then both writing down your expenditures should do the trick. Also, you both should know what investments you have and develop a longterm financial plan together.

I am helping my husband in any accountables related to money, and all expenses in the house. Even with the schooling of the children.We need to be transparent in everything we have.

i'm the bread and butter in our house, have been for a long time. i usually don't share my money but pay all the bills, i don't get much help at the moment. long as he covers the car payment i'm happy to an extent. my partner is not bothered about a budject and that's a problem. i've learnt my lesson with it, all and don't want to go back there.

apparently we're not going to. We talked about it last week.

Dear riani, I am not working at the moment, so no fixed monthly income But previously, when I was still working, I keep my own finance and he keep his. Simple as that! So, he spend his money and I spend my money. Therefore I save my money and he DO NOT SAVE his...lol But most of the time I heard this from my friends; WIFE to husband : My money is my money. Your money is my money too All the best and hope to hear your views on my topic too :)

I never think so taking the money separate from my spouse.Now i am not married but marriage means she comes to my home and totally depends on me then why should we vary each other for the sake of money. Better give the money to her and just tell to separate for what all we have to pay in that month and then the remaining money to be put in the bank in the joint account so that this money may be helpful for the future may be to the child also.

In our family, we do not seperate our income. We work together in every single way. From paying the bills to deciding on which luxuries we can afford in a given month. I believe that part of being married is to share in everything about the day to day life of your family. By sharing our financial situations and everything else in our lives, I feel that we are a much stronger couple than those that don't share in everything about their lives.

Right now I handle my money and my boyfriend handles his. He writes me a check every month to cover his half of the bills that pertain to both of us like rent and electricity and we each handle our own bills separately. I think that in the future, whether we get married or not, eventually we should open a joint checking account together and each deposit money into it for the joint bills and pay those from that account. But I also think we should each keep our own separate checking and savings accounts to use for purchases and bills that have nothing to do with the other person.
