Re: QOTD
I do the finances....I am an accountant/financial analyst but FH puts me on a budget, so I think its a joint effort.

Re: QOTD
we dont live together so we don't have a joint account... but we do have a joint savings account that we call the "wedding fund" that we contribute to... so i dont know if i can really answer this question!

Re: QOTD

Re: QOTD - 10/6

Re: QOTD - 10/6
My parents are handling most of the finances for the wedding. But in our everyday lives, I pay the mortgage and fh pays all the bills. Everything else that goes into the house, we split. Right now, i'm handling more of the finances because he's having a rough time with his job. But it's pretty equal.

Re: QOTD - 10/6
We don't live together but when we do I will be. He has no clue on how to pay bills lol!!
I am definately putting more towards our wedding though but I am completely fine with that. I also have way more saved than he does.

Re: QOTD - 10/6
I know what's going in and out and coordinate payments, but he helps in his own little way.

Re: QOTD - 10/6
I do all the finances. It was always that way. FH hates dealing with bills..
it works out better this way. He never finds out how much I spend....

Re: QOTD - 10/6
Me FH has a major problem with money...he spends too much of it and cant keep track. so I balance the check book and keep track of when payments for the wedding are due. And that is how it will probably be for the rest of our lives...

Re: QOTD - 10/6
He makes more money than I do, by far (at least now) plus I have student loans. He's been really good about it though.

Re: QOTD - 10/6
we have 1 joint account (wedding account) and then we have our own but i set up his direct payments and what not so that he always has enough money for his bills and stuff.
when we get married i can see me handling the finances. it gets stressful sometimes though, wish it was vice versa

Re: QOTD - 10/6
I am the finance person... cause budgeting is kind of my thing. I almost get a thrill out of being able to save up for what I want... I am constantly revamping my budget so we can put more in the wedding fund.
I'm a math nerd.
