Sorry guys, I had a call. I honestly don't think it's that weird and hopefully an example of our grocery list makes sense. This is obviously won't matter anymore now that we have a combined account. But this is usually how it would go.

Mrs. Wacky: Protein bars, celery, carrots, salad crap, chicken, la croix, wine

Wacky: steak, steak marinade, cheese, potatoes, popsicles, beef jerky, etc.

If I feel like a carrot at night, I help myself to a handful. If she wants a jerky snack, snack away. I guess the person who we know is going to eat it the most usually gets said item. I know it sounds and looks weird, this will no longer be an issue.

cf3: Sometimes I sneak some gummy bears in her groceries. I know she wants them too. :)

M^2: Of course I carry her groceries. I'm a gentlemen.  :D

I say that should come from a joint account. Tampons, pads, condoms, etc as well.

Yeah, if she is helping pay for my bad gene medicine, I have to help with the birth control. One last thing, on bulk items like chicken and protein bars at Costco, we just switch monthly on who goes and gets it.

We need a decision matrix for wacky's credit default swap complicated level financial system.

Believe it or not, my credit is over 800. A large part of why I wanted full control of my $, is my crazy bills (mainly loans). It takes a very discipline person to track that crap. I didn't want her throwing me off and stuff.

For the joint + splits; how do you decide how much $$$ goes into each individual's account? Equal or based on income level?

Income level for us

That's the only way for any white midwesterner to pronounce it.

It's her favorite mixer. White girls think they're staying skinny by mixing their drinks with it. It's a whole science that I've studied over the last year with her friends.

What do you mean IF? Whether or not she is paying for your bad genes (which she shouldn't), you should still pay half of the birth control. It takes 2 to make a baby.

I don't understand how everybody doesn't love sparkling water. Not for booze drinks although vodka sodas rock.

The new hard seltzers are delicious as well

no, i don't believe that's accurate.  each party is responsible for their own birth control.

I'm in the hybrid 4 account camp. Both paychecks direct deposit to joint account, pay all the bills (including groceries like normal people) and then the rest is split evenly three ways between a his account, her account, and a savings account.

Super easy and no extra thinking involved.

Agreed sparkling water is fantastic, although I think the store brand is usually just as good (I mean, it's water).

My wife mainlines that gross crap. And during my girls' soccer games all of the women who drive imports have this stuff in hand as if it's essential for life. I didn't see this until last fall, now it's everywhere.

It's like chicken, but if neither person bails you end up with a baby. I think it's just a typical pro-procreation stance by sys.

What do you do if you win Powerball with a ticket that you purchased using funds from your own account? Put the winnings in your own account?
