Having separate finances is not exactly a new idea, plenty of people do that. My partner and I have completely separate finances, but equally share expenses like food, housing, repairs, etc. Works fine for us!
- lutorm 13y agoI guess you have about the same income then? Or do you "tax" each other an equal percentage?
- scott_karana 13y agoWhy does it matter? They'd have to mutually agree on the shared expenses, and agree on the splitting. If they get a house they both want, and both can afford, they split 50/50. Hypothetically, I'm guessing that if whoever made more income wanted a nicer place than the other, they could pay an agreed proportion more (eg, 60/40)
