Is Sean your husband? Why I ask is, Dr. Joyce Brothers pushes a WONDERFUL system of finances that I will never, ever remarry without. It's called MOMO, for Money Of My Own.

The concept is to make a budget, and keep three checking accounts. You put deposit all paychecks into the joint account, and pay the bills & put aside money for a rainy day (an agreed-to amount). Then, all money left over, be it $5 or $500 dollars, is divided equally for Money Of Your Own. You shall use your money for ANYTHING that your little heart desires, be it ice cream or a diamond pendant, and never, ever feel guilt!

Good luck!
