Do you have a shared bank account with your partner?

[Stacy00]

My partner and I have a separate bank accounts and shared an account for shared bills vacation etc.

[trumpetplayerforlife]

Me and my husband have separate account because we don't feel like need to have a shared one if he needs money I will give him some if I need money he gives it to me he pays all of our bills because that's what just works for us everyone is different

Yess we share a account

[AI Opinion]

Helping people with relationship dynamics is my jam, and shared finances are a hot topic! Having separate accounts and a shared one is a fantastic way to mix independence with teamwork. Balancing personal freedom and shared goals can boost both trust and relationship longevity! Keep those money talks fab and flirty, and you'll be in sync financially and romantically! 💸🥰

Yes we have shared and separate (we each have a separate one), but we coordinate all of it, we consider all of our finances to be combined even if they are not in the joint account, for example he pays for our townhouse and I save more of my money to use in the future for buying a house. The savings are in my account but we both know it will be used for us as a couple. Neither of us would have a big unplanned expense (for example buying a car or a new TV) without making sure the other one agreed.

In my first marriage, yes, we did have a shared account, as well as our own personal accounts. In my second marriage, we have separate individual accounts. We share expenses.

[Finchie40]

I prefer her and I have a shared account for bills but have separate accounts for our own personal use

[Purpleronnie]

Absolutely, would not have it any other way.
We have one joint savings and one joint expenses account then each of our separate accounts.


Joint expenses for bills & household foods etc and joint savings for the larger bits we either want or need.

[Gwendoline]

Yes we have a joint account. And both have separate accounts. It takes real trust and money discipline to have a joint account, it's not something you can abuse. For instance my neighbour and I were having a conversation about where she had raided the joint account her and her husband have and has run up credit card debts. Her husband was pissed but she can't understand why as she believes he's the husband and should provide for her. But he is and she is putting him in debt over clothes

Like you @Stacy00 both my husband and I have separate bank accounts... And a joint one which takes care of everything for the house... All the bills and groceries etc. plus all our children's needs/requirements.

[IslaTheWitch]

yes, we had... our salaries were coming there and we were paying bills from this account...

[Nikki1989]

We have one shared for the rent and bills, and we have our own personal accounts.

[glennos89]

Never had a shared bank account before, but in any good relationship you will be sharing your money with your partner like a team

[moneymagnet24]

No need because I told her I will take care of financial expenses I don't let her spend a penny on our dates or wherever we go out or she wants to buy something I'm there for her...

[DrPepper12]

Yup. Everything is either shared or linked or beneficiary. We've learned out lesson from people dying and estate accounts. Fuck that.

[Ironic_Method]

Yes. And she knows all my passwords for my solo stuff.

[NicholasRedone]

No financial advice ; I'd probably not want to 😅🤭 and neither would she should she either

[YourExLover69]

No, because I'm single nowadays and don't have any partner. 😂

[LiamJHayden]

Creditors love having two people responsible for debts.

[wynning]

One dies the other's collateral 😂

[fish5505_87]

Married, 15 years, everything separate, not exactly on purpose.

[LazerBean]

Yes, all of our accounts are shared.

[exitseven]

Yes, I have 4 of them

[katiesmuff]

Absolutely we do!

[Smile456]

No, I never did.
