It's easy to do. Having that joint acct makes life simple since we can both see where our money is going and both be on the same page while the separate checking accounts still allow us freedom to spend as we wish. It's a good system and I recommend it.

You and I are on the same page. It's a "mine, yours, and ours" division of resources. If I decide to take my niece to NYC for a weekend, why not? If he's working & unable to go with us, I'm not going to "bank of husband" for permission to withdraw funds. I've got a side stash that doesn't impact our overall financial picture. Ditto for him: when his family, volunteer or club activities take him out of town, I'm not asking for an itemized expense report or badgering him to stay at Motel 6 instead of Hilton Garden Inn, LOL.

Life is way too short to fight about money.
