I read the post below about payback time and I'm suprised every time I hear the comment "it's her money". I guess my name (Dinosaur) says it all about me but somehow I just could never figure out that type of thinking. Now, if a couple gets married later in life and they've had their own careers, investments, etc. then I can certainly see this way of dealing with things. But these days there are a suprising number of young couples (and maybe older couples as well) who are starting out from scratch with almost nothing (much like many of us did) who lead totally separate and independant financial lives. I worked with a couple of fellas (in their mid 50's) who were married as long as I was at the time and they operated that way. I guess if it works OK, then who am I to raise an eyebrow, but somehow I think the institution of marriage should go a bit beyond that type of thinking. In any event, everything here is in the same pot and we both dip into it pretty much when we want as long as it's sensible (which would include buying an old piece of tractor junk).
