Finance in a relationship??

Question

I understand that financial agreement in a relationship is very important...is two people have the same spending habits then theres pretty much nothing wrong..and if one person spends money excessivley and wastefull buying alot of useless items and the other doesnt..then it probably wont work out....but what is one person doesnt buy anything but the neccesities and once in a while spoils themselves with something cheap..and the other person buys things more often and of more value but stays within their budget and tries to avoid buying unnessacary items? Would there be a lot of problems with this in a relationship? What are the main keys to having financial agreement??

Answer 1

When you have different spending habits, I would suggest having your own bank accounts, and to agree to pay a certain amount of the bills together, depending on each other's income, respectively. The person who makes more money would pay more in bills of course, do it by percentages, or divide up the bills.
