Mrs Gooch, whatever that kid wants to do, we'll make it work together. Boy/Girl, ballet, skiing, etc. I think a kid having an activity that they really value is very important. My dad worked OT just so I could be on a competitive traveling team for baseball. When my team made the World Series in baseball up in Canada, mom got a 2nd job. I was very lucky. I plan to do the same if I ever have kids. Plus, we all know I married Mrs. Wacky for her eventual small inheritance. I'm hoping that will never be a problem for my kids.

True story- Back in 02' my dad paid over a thousand $'s to get me on a recruiting website and it worked. Had a handful of offers and I rejected them all because my heart was at K-State. I've always felt bad about that to this day.  :frown:

did the website mention you were team captain?

Q: What if one spouse is a stay at home parent but wants a new guitar?
That wasn't part of the marriage contract. Also, we all know you'd try and make it work for her unfortunately. I went 2K over my ring budget and she still convinced me two get her two bands on top of that.  :frown: #Sucker

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

Just transfer 1/2 of your spending money to the stay at home parent's account.

_fan, I mentioned a % earlier, but that's incorrect now that I think of it. Mrs. wacky and I both agreed to keep $150 per individual check, for our own accounts.

I know man. I was already getting looked at locally and asked dad not to do it. That's a lot of pressure for a kid and by the end of the day, I ended up filling like crap about it.  :frown:

The people who run those things should be prosecuted for being thieves. But if parents are dumb enough to buy it (no offense to your dad wacky) then I suppose that's part of the deal.

He's a lefty tho.  :frown: So jealous.

_fan, no offense at all. They sell dads/moms who want nothing but the best for their kid. It's a scam for the most part. Dad just knew he was going to do whatever he could to get me seen. It was easier for my brother. He ran cross country and track at one of the biggest high schools in Iowa and they just look at times. He had D1 schools flying in to eat dinner with us 24/7.

I make my spouse apply for a loan since I make the money.  I almost always loan her the money and since she's my wife I give her a sweet interest rate.

I thought I had this thing figured out, but a new question just popped up in my head. Does medicine count as joint bills or "play $"? I would think joint, right? I pay $70 a month for my crap.

Is the medicine needed because of fun stuff? If so, then fun money obviously.

Wacky, when you have kids, never pick up WackyJr from daycare the day payment is due.  You don't want that big ass bill coming out of your account.

I would think pre-existing health issues you bring into the marriage should be covered by the joint funds since Mrs. Wacky knew those were part of the deal, but I don't know if new illnesses would be covered.
