Right now, we have separate accounts. I figure that'll change once I finish law school and will be bringing home about 95% of the bacon. As it stands, I do make a bit more than she does. Accordingly, I just pay all of the bills and the rent myself. She buys the groceries and meals out. Sometimes, we'll make a purchase and go in on it 50/50 (I'll just make an e-payment to her credit card for the amount I owe).

It works out fine for now. It's a little unwieldy, but I figure it's a temporary thing. We'll probably make everything joint once I start to make the big bucks. Either that, or we'll use her teacher's salary to invest/save and mine to live on.
