Married OTers: Do you have a joint bank account with your spouse?

frick no.

I don't know if I'd want to join accounts. It seems to encourage this generation's female idea that "My money is my money, and your money is our money."

I'd keep separates and a joint

nah, but i do with my mistress

I'm making the money now, but she'll be a doctor soon. You bet your arse we have joint accounts.

Yes.

Yep....if you can't trust her/him with the money, why are you getting married?

Was supposed to but never did get around to doing it. We still have separate accounts. As long as the bills get paid every month neither one of us worries about the other's account. It deffinitely cuts down on fighting about money.

ETA: for the record, we both have access to each others accounts. I can write checks, use a card, and transfer money from her account and vice versa.

How would a joint account encourage my money is my money? That literally makes no sense.

Joint account here.

Yes, everything is spent out of the same checking. It isn't complicated if you marry a fiscally responsible person.
