Thanks everyone for your answers. My fiance and I come from different philosophies as far as money is concerned. Her parents both work, and share one account. My dad's always been the breadwinner, and he gives my mom a monthly "paycheck" for herself, house renos, etc, and then handles all the bills mortgage etc.
I think I want a hybrid where we still have our own money, but she sounds like she'd like to share it. Ultimately, our relationship is #1 so I know we'll come up with a compromise that works for us.

My scenario might work for you - almost all the money is pooled, but we still have separate accounts that are ours to use as we see fit. Be it saving for something, blowing it every pay period, whatever.
