Pero pano nga ba ang diskarte nyo? Me sarili ba kayong "stash"? i guess it's a bit more complicated in the US where people can get wiped out from a divorce.

imho, i think OK lang naman if each partner has his/her "own" money, so long as they're not remiss in paying the bills, tuition, etc., or are spending it on luho...lalo na kung babae, usually dehado sa hiwalayan(at least here in PH)

Wifey and myself,- shared resources,- joint accounts ang aming payroll accounts sa bangko...

Money is a necessary evil,- and it is more evil to fight over money....

Nagpapaalam naman ako sa kanya kapag binili ko na ang item sa amazon...

I keep a small amount in my wallet for 'special occasions',- para lang hindi ako manghihingi sa kanya- dyahi rin kasi lalo na kung may nakakakita o nakakarinig..... >>> Anyway, almost all of the times,- iyong paningit ko sa wallet ay nagagastos din namin kapag may biglaang kailangang bilhin ng cash - like LPG et al....

60% of my salary bigay kay wife 40% sa akin... kung meron ako gusto bilhin hindi ko na need magsabi basta sabihin ko lang na gusto ko yun but she trusted me kasi masyado ako masinop at kuripot. almost of the 40% nasasave ko.

her salary kanya yun and commission nya. I dont question if kung meron sya naiipon or wala bsata I trust her sana meron.

Basta ang usapan pagnagbigay na ako lahat nang expenses sa house, tuition etc hindi na ako gagastos pa kahit lumabas kami like mamasyal etc. etc.

Yung tuition kasi kinukuha namin sa 13th month ko.

agree. i know of some people who posts in their fb na they are living the life, pero in reality hindi. really true happy people do not need to show everyone their current state.

ganyan din kami, we have our own money as long as na kaya magbayad ng bills. i dont control my wife on what she spends on, kaso ako ang maluho sa amin hehe.

i dont believe in giving my wife my salary. ayoko yung nanghihingi kasi and i dont require her to give me her salary either, we both trust each other on our own personal expenses, but as a guy, i still feel the need to take up more expenses than hers. personally, i alot a monthly budget on car, hobby, travel regardless may planong gumastos o hindi

I read one book na its healthier daw na yung money ng mag-asawa is shared.. Then conjugal spending. One approves the other before you buy something.. Siguro sa mga mataas ang ego, medyo mahihirapan yata sa ganun situation.. Pero hinde ba ganun yung vow sa marriage?

Is it really hard? Or dahil tayo yung lalake we feel different na if we earn the bread, why should i ask permission to spend?

Wala pa ako asawa, pero im leaning on that sense (conjugal earning/spending) in terms of money matters in marriage when that time comes..

if both husband and wife have simple tastes, there's no problem who controls the purse, because money will not hemorrhage out.. if either has expensive taste, there's a big problem, regardless of who holds the wallet..
in my case, we have simple tastes.. one day, i bring home a car. "honey, i bought a new car". wifey says, "oh good! i'll help you break it in. we're out of supplies. you can drive me to the grocery!"

for me and my wife, i just give her my entire pay... kumukuha lang ako ng pang allowance.... minsan pag kinakapos, humihingi na lang din. works for us.... wala akong stress mag intindi ng mga monthly bills. and nacocontrol nya ang budget.
