I also use envelop to deposit money in the bank and just like Kandice when I got married I want me and my husband have a separate account which will contribute each month.

I just got married, and we have two seperate personal checking accounts, one joint checking for bills (we split the bills evenly each month), and one joint savings account that we both contribute to each month. So far, it's working out well. Again, nice blog. Nice blog.

The economy is down and the stress is high. It's tough for a single person to openly communicate about his own financial situation, not to mention couples with a family to support. I have known some marriages become rocky lately because one of the spouses lose the job. Money is sensitive issue and you are a lucky man who have such an understanding lady on your side.

Nice twist on budgeting. Combining finanaces in marriage can always be a challenge. I like the idea on envelopes. However, I really like to take advantage of points on a credit card, so I have not tried that. However, it is something I plan to evaluate. Thanks Good article. Nice twist on budgeting.

All our accounts are joint, but we have plenty of them. 5 checking, 3 savings, 12 credit cards and we still live on budget plus enjoy some free money made on credit cards rewards.

So far it has been great! Having to do a budget together forces us to be open with each other and holds us accountable for the goals we have set. It also good to know that we trust each other with our money. Great post! My wife and I have been married for three months and pretty much mirror you guys’ philosophy. So far it has been great!
