We're both pretty responsible, and we know what we have and what we don't, so nobody goes crazy. We both have REAL problems with authority, or someone telling us what to do, so if either of us started counting change, I think we'd go nuts. But our money styles are pretty similar, so it works for us.

LOL!! how can i get blood out of a turnip? ... We have separate accounts, however i'd control our IRA stock trading accounts and her 401K account.thing2of2|1326224902|3099647 said:Me! We ended up combining all of our accounts this past year which makes it much easier for me to stay on top of everything.
How about you DF? Does your wife just give you an allowance?
not really, b/c i'm the one whom decides what stock to purchase for their Roth IRA accounts.NewEnglandLady|1326224953|3099650 said:I'm in charge of the joint checking account and the joint savings account. We are responsible for our own individual checking accounts and investments. We compare quarterly mutual fund statements, but D does keep a "trading" account that I don't like to see because I don't have the stomach for the fluctuations.
DF, we know who is in charge of your accounts: your daughter!
