Well I've been married for 7 years and I agree with everything she said. My husband and I have had a joint checking account for 8 1/2 years since we were dating and living together. I make much more than my husband, but what is mine is his. That is what a marriage, a partnership is all about. If you can't trust you partner, that is your own problem, but don't be surprised that others can. Money is what ruins most marriages that end in divorce. I decided a long time ago not to give money that kind of power over my relationship.
