Just acknowledging you'd posted something very similar in end result.

Ah, ok.
For the record, my wife and I only have a joint account. She manages the finances and I figure out what the tips should be at restaurants. That's the extent of our financial division because I'm so used to spending like a drunken sailor from when I was single. I don't have much impulse control when I have "free" money in my pocket.
When I was single, I used to blow my money on things I wanted and then eat cup-o-soup and macaroni for the rest of the month. When my wife and I started to live together I realized that in order for the partnership to work we needed to spend cooperatively. We each get a say in how our money is spent and it works out.
