Do you have a bank account that your Wife or fiancè doesn't know about?

[jtnc]

I know some people believe in joint bank accounts and others don't, do you have a stash or bank account he or she doesn't know about?

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Yes, Cayman Islands and Switzerland in particular.

[CRA]

No. That might lead to a divorce if she found out I was hiding money

[Jase]

hiding money is bad

[Carolina Husker]

No, but we do have separate checking accounts.

[PanthaSan]

She has her account and I have mine. Nothing mailicious but I have had the same bank for 15 years and she likes hers better. Her money from her job is prety much fun money as she gets paid crap wages but loves what she does.

I get paid from her business account and she uses the rest for the house and such from it.

Leftovers got to a joint savings account.

[Hawk]

nope...all our financials are 100% shared.

[jasonluckydog]

no

[teeray]

Yes. Well she kinda knows it exists but knows not to ask questions about it.

[Kettle]

no. i wish i had a personal checking account though. there's no surprising her with gifts the way it is now. or getting something for myself without her knowing.

[MCP]

No, not unless I have one I have forgotten about.

[Panthro]

It's a talk we are going to have to have soon.

I was thinking that we could put 50% of our salary into a joint account to pay rent/mortgage, bills, student loans, cars, etc. 25% into a savings account and we could keep 25% for our own personal use in another checking account.

[GritsRgreat]

Jeez people, everyone should have a hidden stash just in case.

[Epistaxis]

All shared.

Though as previously mentioned I wish I had something so I could get her surprise gifts.

As it stands now I can't even sneak her 10th anniversary gift past her.
