This only works if u both make the same amount of money or else ur paying the majority of the bills and also paying her expenses now that she has the power she might spend all ur money and if u have control then making so many accounts doesn't make sense
"we" ? Why we ? How would you have done if you were single, once you've paid the bills ? Just do the same here. If you can't spare, don't spare, but keep your independancies. This is the fundamental message here.
If you’re in your 20s, buy a small fixer upper house in a fabulous neighborhood, invest, double or triple down on your savings, and you’ll be financially independent by age 50. You will see your peers continue to struggle but you will have set yourself up to also take the hits life will throw at you along the way. If you marry when you’re older, get a bulletproof prenuptial agreement to secure your house and your savings to the date of marriage, and then you can be secure that no one is marrying you for your assets. That way if the marriage fails (about 6 out of 10 will), you’ll have narrowed the battle to assets earned inside the marriage and your divorce attorney won’t be able to gouge you since you will have already stated the post-marital split in your agreement. 🤷🏾♀️
My boyfriend and I have had exactly this ever since we moved in toghether (10 years ago). Only difference: our paychecks come into our personal accounts, and we both transfer an x amount to our joint account for bills and groceries. We also have a joint savings account for holidays and emergencies, and we both have our own personal savings too. Feels great. It gives both security and independance.
You need your own account. Nothing in this life is permanent. Life and death and divorce happens. We don't plan it. But what if she or he leaves or dies and they clean the account out or you can't get a signature
It’s actually 3 ways for a single person.. Keep in mind that you both already have individual bank accounts before you got married so all that’s left is an account to sort out the bills and an account for saving.
This is only 3 and also literally should be how everyone budgets their money. Set off the main money for all your bills, take a percentage of your choice from the remainder for savings, rest can go to basic spending on whatever. 3 step budgeting simple as pie.
OMG! WOW! Hell yeah! This is beautiful advice. Partnership dasn't mean all into one. Share/save the two and separate the last two cards for individuality. Yes! We need more advice and practical stuff around like this. Teach your kids this sort of things. Love this! ♥ 💜 💛
My hubby and I both have a set amount of money that is ours to spend each month w/o asking, but the transactions come out of the joint account. We have no secrets from one another, but I do think having our own “spending money” is a great way to manage money as a married couple.
Problem is that if you want to buy something big, that's not gonna fit in your monthly allowed spending. We do it as explained here for years, and works really well. If i wanna spend 5000 dollars on some huge home theater i can just do that cause i saved that with my own money. No questions asked except: Can i come too?
Glad to know we’re doing this already! We’ve got the main account for check deposits and bills. We’ve got one checking account with two cards for food. We’ve got another checking account with two cards for non-food items (gas, toilet paper, toothpaste, etc.). We’ve each got our own checking account where we get an “allowance” every week. Then we have three savings accounts - one for emergencies that we don’t touch, one for vacations since that’s something we wanted to focus on, and one for larger purchases (bigger items we want but don’t need like a tv, computer, etc.). It helps us see where everything goes and we can adjust it when we need to!
Wow, my husband and I did this the second we got married. I thought he would be against it when I brought it up but he wasn’t. He thought it was a great idea. I’m glad we’re not the only ones of this mindset.
It is great because you dont have anyone overdrafting because they didnt check with their spouse. You talk over the bills. You never take money out of savings except for emergencies. Then you each have your own petty funds account to keep track of without worrying about someone else's withdrawals.
My husband and I have separate and joint accounts and everyone I tell this to looks at me like I'm crazy. Foreign concept to some people we have been doing this for over 10 years. I never thought about it to be honest, when we met I had my own and he had his own, we just kept them, added each others names to them in case of emergency and then opened two different types of savings account. I love it.
before my husband and I divorced 12 years ago we each had our own separate individual accounts with our credit union and we had a joint accountl to take care of our household finances. so it does work. a lot of people think that it might not be a great idea to have your own separate accounts because everything is supposed to be together, as two becomes one... BUT in this day and age, a lot of people forget the old school adage: LOVE is LOVE, BUT BUSINESS is BUSINESS. and running a HOUSEHOLD is like running a BUSINESS. IT is a personal FAMILIAL CORPORATION. even BUSINESS LAW would support that. BUT you and your husband are DOING the right thing, and you already know why they thought it was crazy, because they may not have even thought about it LOL.
@ladiifourtwnty cookies just make sure never to make a joke. I repeated a joke to my wife before we got married. Forget what comedian made the joke. I changed it alittle and said " your money is your money and my money is your money" his joke was that's what his wife thought. Well 12yrs later wife with money arguments she still repeats it to me saying her and my money is all hers. She claims I wasn't joking as if I wouldn't know. For 12 yrs she has yet to help with bills. She didn't even have taxes taken from her pay so tax time I owed. For last 2 yrs she haven't worked but still keeps the 5k+ returns. I pay everything take her and our 2 kids out to eat weekly and pay for vacations and I buy and wrap our kids 🎁. She doesn't even remember my bd which is 9 days after hers. My marriage is so weird
Best thing ever! Been married for 24 years. We started with a joint account and he would over spend. We separated our accounts and the bills. Best thing ever! We would probably be divorced if we hadn’t.
@@dragonext2001 Oh my. Sorry, i feel bad on that one. Well I am old school as far it is alright for the woman to stay home and take care of the kids and house. But I am a little modern in that since I work and earn money then it is ours. We just keep it separate. My husband is old school as well so he also pays for everything and doesn't mind. I have to sneak and pay a bill before him if I want to do that. But to even it out, I buy all the groceries, household needs and wants, all kids stuff, clothing for house, and all of Christmas (except mine of course). It works out. I'm still contributing just not paying the mortgage, power, etc. I do not believe at all that a woman keeps 100% of her money and has the right to spend his. Separate bank accounts yes, but all the money is still ours. If there is an emergency it all will come together to handle it.
@ladiifourtwnty cookies Nope all the money is ours. That is an entitled mentality to have. Both must contribute in some way. If she doesn't work then she should be making sure he doesn't have to do anything when he gets home or is off. Except of course things she can't do. But my sons tell me i'm a unicorn that not many women think the way I do. So who knows, LOL
Me and my husband do this. I am actually a stay at home mom so we have one income. We have one that is for paying bills. Left over we split into our own account. And depending how much we got we put into savings. We don’t have much but it’s still something. It keeps us accountable and when ever we buy things for the kids we both pitch in. We have 5 and soon to be 6 kids. It works.
You have no job and very little money. But you have five kids and another one on the way six kids no money. It's time to start going to the movies or investing in condoms!! You shouldn't be having such a large family when you can't afford it that's terrible
@@spilledsoju03 they have 5-6 kids. Sometimes one parent staying home and not working is just as necessary as being the one that goes to a different job every day. If you think parenting 5 kids isn’t a very difficult you’re delusional, I’d take working 10+ hours a day labor.
@@dietznuts4014 yeah but you don’t do the fact in this situation is he funds her life. No one’s saying that situation isn’t agreeable or disagreeable for them, it’s just what the truth is
@@spilledsoju03 he's saying that you should have seperate accounts so you can do what you want and have independence. He didn't specify where the funds should come from. If there's only one income that's fine. They might make in one income the equivalent of what you make in two
You guys are so uneducated about money that you believe that nonesense… If you both work, you should be perfectly able to do so. What you find difficult is to maintain the quality of life that you have, buying whatever you want, new phone? New car? New anything AND be able to have multiple bank accounts. You can’t, except if you make enough money. Otherwise, you have to learn how fiances work and how to spend less on futile things.
I have 4 bank accounts on my own. One I get paid into, one I pay bills out of, one I carry the card for, and one to save a little each month for xmas and holidays. That way I can never unintentionally spend more on one thing than I planned to. I also have a long-term saving account and a pension but I count them as investments rather than bank accounts.
Its crazy how many people blow their money away and dont even realize it. Those 89 cent drinks add up. At one point my so was the only one working she was making 11$/hr and we managed to pay our rent, utilities, student loan payments, car payments, and we managed to save some cash. It wasnt alot but we had a savings. And now those habits we built together 3 years ago are doing wonders for us now that we are both working better paying jobs.
In india it's same but in rural area things go well in with traditional understanding But in newly urbanised areas with rapidly changing lifestyle problems are arising between couple as women want more freedom and also don't want to drop the mindset of financial dependency
So true. This is always what my parents have done and always what I though everyone did growing up. When I got to adulthood I realized it wasn’t the case for most.
It's good advise too keep your money in order, but it won't solve your problems if you don't trust each other when it comes to spending. There are groceries, unexpected expenses, things you buy for the house, clothes etc, so you need to know that even thought you have freedom with your accounts no one would go crazy with it. You don't need to ask for everything, but you should both agree that if there's something you want to buy above certain amount you will consult it with each other to make sure you're good, budget-wise. So there's some freedom, but it's a responsible one.
We're halfway there. We have one checking account for bills, which is always barely enough, and another savings account which is empty. 👍 Yeah! Movin' on up!
We have just a checking and savings account and we can spend whatever we want ourselves. I don't need permission to buy my own stuff, nor does he need mine - we just keep tabs on making sure we have enough for the necessities, and use common sense when making purchases. I will run larger purchases by by hubby, not because I need his permission but out of respect knowing our money is ours. We are one.
Good advice, we do it the other way around though. Contribute to the joint account from our personal accounts. the rest is hers is hers and mine is mine
I wish I had done this 29 years ago. I would have been financially prepared for abandonment. Good advice. I will never give control of finances to another person again.
I am Jamaican and Dominican and single, as young girl my parents teach me to have 1 account for savings, 2nd for emergency, 3rd for checking to pay bills such as light, mortgage ect. I started the 4th savings so that if something goes wrong with the house I have some help to fix it, when I get paid I have 3% to my 401k , $50 each to the other 3 accounts, and for the 4th /$20 to $30 for fixing the home. It doesn't take a lot to save you have to make sacrifices, I dont buy alot of fast food I have nice things but I save towards it. My cousin has a $800 car payment it doesn't include insurance and live with her 3 kinds from 3 different dads she is a single parent. You have to make certain decisions for the future of your well being. She lost her job and the car, she is using one of my cars and she lives with me so she can get on her feet. At your job work overtime if available, I work 2 jobs for 4 years to build up my savings. Once you reach 25 years old you must work on building up yourself no one is going to help you. I don't judge what you do for a living but save some of the money. Don't live above your means. Just saying?
Finally someone gets it. I live by all of those things and get called a tightwad and told I never do things with my S/O but guess what? All bills are taken care of and in the event of an emergency, I can cover it.
Been doing this for 6 years since we got married and we never have issues talking about money. You are your own person. Have your own money. Be your own person outside of the marriage. And not just with money, but with friends and hobbies too.
My husband and I have two joint accounts, but we keep our money separate. We can both access each other’s money if we need to- but our own money goes in our own accounts. He pays the big bills, I pay for groceries, travel and household necessities. 👐🏽
@@dickhitswater4836 those are not just a few small ones doofus. Groceries, travel, and household items can often come out to cost more than other bills in the end, I know for a fact.
@@irisbelle8 travel is a luxury only privileged enjoy so easy with the doofus stuff, there’s no need to be rude. luxuries are what they are and when you are privileged enough to enjoy them appreciate them for what they are because many don’t ever experience it.
@@dickhitswater4836 She's paying for vacations, That's Hardly EVER a SMALL AMOUNT of money! (Unless you vacationed like we did for about 10 years- bought a used, large camper, found our favorite campgrounds and felt we had a vacation every wkend! Those are such great memories) But, maybe in their situation, It was her way of making up for him paying the "big bills". Usually It all evens out in the end, Her hubby doesn't seem to mind that arrangement at all! IF we had the luxury to go on extravagant vacations every year, he'd gladly pay the "larger bills" if I'd pay for a vacation every year. Even back when we were young tho, raising our boys, he paid for most of everything, because from his experience, OTJ training & then college after Vietnam was over, the Air Force paid him to go to college. His skilled trade in the Air Force, easily transferred over to a Civilian job, and being a Veteran, AND an Electrical Engineer, there was NO way I could make half of what he made with a career in Healthcare. But it was more important to him though, that I stayed local, so IF our boys needed anything, I was always close enough to take care of them. Plus I was always the one that got them to baseball & football practice, guitar & drum lessons, while he traveled out of town most of the time. I could've drove to a bigger town, and made more money, but he said he preferred it this way, he felt I had job security, I carried the insurance on all of us, and then it was pretty convenient that I could arrange my schedule for breaks out of school, sick days, and like I said could get them to whatever they had going on after school, then get them home, showers, fix dinner, make sure they got their homework was done, and that I laundry all done. kept up on ALL the housework chores. Had I worked out of town, I couldn't have done both. Me beings with our boys was much more important to him, than me making more money than I did. Now, with him retired, and myself becoming disabled, one boy out on his own, our youngest tragically being called to his Heavenly home, neither of us have any regrets how we chose the way to raise our family.... but we sure miss our babyboy. Don't ever take your loved ones- especially your parents, your spouse & your kids for granted. Tomorrow isn't promised to any of us. Bless You All.
Or how about every relationship is different and different things work for different people? After 34 years, I'd hope you'd have understood that atleast.
I'm mid 30s, single, with a decent paying job. I started doing this 3 years ago. 1 account has all my bills on autopay, and that's where all my money goes into when my check deposits. The 2nd account is a savings account with a better than average rate, which I move money to twice a month, the Monday after payday. The 3rd account I put money in every month on the 1st of the month, and that's the money I use for when I wanna buy lunch or dinner, instead of cooking at home, or if I wanna go to the movies, etc. Has really changed the way I spend money.
you should consider investing part of the money in that savings account in something safe like the S&P 500. Even with a good rate, you’re still losing money due to inflation, but the S&P averages 7+% annual return.
@@iancampbell1911 Lol 7% is a joke. Create your own business. Putting your own money to work will not only produce more for you but teach you things too. Letting other people put your money to work for them only teaches codependency.
I'd also suggest putting some of that savings into bitcoin. It's high risk but high reward. Its averaged 100% pa since 20009. It'll be a million plus for one btc within 10 years.

Steve has some of the most helpful stories if you're in his financial position but if you're a regular person very little of his speeches pertain to you
If you’re a millionaire, have a basic job or are on benefits this works. It’s personal financials 101. Even if it’s only $800 a month it’s still how you should be doing it
I'm single and did this too. Just 3 acc btw... One for the bills and food and gas. One for the future or emergencies and another one for my hobbies and more foods as I am a foodie 😅
I have 3. Saving that had 95% of my earnings saved, checking that gets blown through by the next pay check 🤣 and an account that is connected to my online store, money that goes there never gets touched
Good advise. Just curve it to work for your situation. My father told me when I got married many moons ago that everyone needs their own spending money that they don’t have to account for or answer to.
Already doing this! 👍🏻 don’t forget the 5th bank account…. Time with your partner. Life is to short to worry to much about the other 4 accounts. You have the 5th, you’ll always be happy!
My wife does not work, been married 17 years, 1 checking, 1 savings, 2 brokerage accounts. Number of account does not determine the life you have. Respect, love, and trust does.
Havent been able to work in 5 years because of heart disease. My husband tries hard to support us as best as he can. I dont recieve any benefits from the government or state. The struggle is hard, but we have each other and as long as we can laugh and be together every will be ok.
Amen Angela! You're already much richer than many, MANY of these people in these comments. Your marriage sounds like the way marriage was created to be. Sticking beside each other thru the hardest times of your marriage, standing side by side, 2 people who have become 1, "In sickness and in health, For RICHER OR POORER, For better and for worse, Til death do you part." Our Vows are MUCH MORE important to my husband & I than seperate bank accounts, and how much either of us have to each of our names. We've been doing it this way for 30yrs, as of just in September, so we must be doing something right!! At least for us! Of course we're not millionaires either Angie, SO MAYBE...JUST MAYBE, Money is NOT Everything. Look at the divorce rate among celebrities..... Kinda makes you wonder huh?? Well May God Bless You & Your Hubby, Your Health.... (I'm in same boat as you, and going thru intense grieving as we just lost my Mom 2 months - "OUR MOM"- ago as of tomorrow. It's been HELL. AND, It Brings back ALOT from tragically losing our youngest son, 9yrs ago at only 21 yrs old. We miss them BOTH than more than words can express.) We cannot take our loved ones for granted, especially our children, our spouses, And our parents. Tomorrow is never promised to ANYONE.... AND, Life is TRULY NOT all about money, bank acts etc. Some just have to learn the hard way...😢💔) And also, May God continue blessing your marriage!! Prayers, Joy, Light & Love 🙏💙🦋💙✨️✨️💜✝️💜🙏
Be sure the one you have a joint account with for the bills don't go and clean the account out, never say nothing to you, and when a bill is needed to get paid, SURPRISE IT'S ALL GONE! Thank you Steve each should have an account of their own, because you both got to have your own life. HAVE AN SAVINGS TOGETHER BUT IT TAKES 2 SIGNATURES TO MOVE IT,. Thank you!
I wish that I had this advice when I got divorced. My EX waited til my health got so bad that I didn't know I was in this world and he cleaned the checking and all the other accounts out . I didn't have anything left.
I agree with Steve Harvey. Yeah, each person needs some of their own money to do something they want for their own happiness! That's the way it should be!
My first thought was "split private accounts are good, because then my man won't know where I buy his presents for how much and same the other way around" so I sent him this and realised it's also meant for me buying my own small things and vice versa hahaha It's almost Christmas and he keeps asking me to make a list and I know he's going to give me something cool so I just want to give him something too and I guess we're always thinking about what to give the other or do together, especially with the holidays around the corner. 😅
Ours doesn't work this way. We have 2 accounts. One both our checks go into, the other any bonuses and parts of our check go into. We have a hard rule, you don't spend more than 200 dollars without checking in with each other first. It's not permission, it's communication.
That’s a good idea. It might eliminate some arguments over money which does cause many hurtful words that you can’t take back no matter how many times you say you’re sorry or told they’re sorry. It’s still in your head.
My ex had a hidden offshore account which is why we argued over why he was refusing to wear the cheap clothes I bought him as he could secretly afford designer, we lived with bills in the red every month he said the business paid for stuff lol. The only thing that works is have separate accounts, jointly pay bills and know what's in each others accounts so you can help the less fortunate one out.

OMG! WOW! Hell yeah! This is beautiful advice. Partnership dasn't mean all into one. Share/save the two and separate the last two cards for individuality. Yes! We need more advice and practical stuff around like this. Teach your kids this sort of things. Love this! ♥ 💜 💛

@@SaundersBoy Her3 we badly have money to pay the bills
Actually started doing this just a few months ago with my wife. So far so good
My husband and I have been doing this from the very beginning, when we started living together. To me this common sense.
Baby
What ever y’all do
Keep outside ppl out
It will hpn keep god 1rst it will hpn amen I’m praying for yall❤🎉
Mum and dad did this for over 35 years. It works
Best advice ever. Wish l would have known this before. Better later than never.
My hubby and I both have a set amount of money that is ours to spend each month w/o asking, but the transactions come out of the joint account. We have no secrets from one another, but I do think having our own “spending money” is a great way to manage money as a married couple.
Problem is that if you want to buy something big, that's not gonna fit in your monthly allowed spending.
We do it as explained here for years, and works really well. If i wanna spend 5000 dollars on some huge home theater i can just do that cause i saved that with my own money. No questions asked except: Can i come too?
But what if u want to buy surprise gift tfor them?
@@itsaj2404 good point
Glad to hear there's marriages where both share the responsibilities. Unfortunately my marriage isn't like that.
@@MD-or1rb i guess you can use your other wife's account for that
“You gotta have your own life”
Translation: divorce…1 account 😹
🤣
Still better never get married and you can have all the money and do whatever you want.
Yep.
@@Pfirtzer Life is more than money, and it's a selfish life that's focused on "what I want to do".
Before I have 1, After divorce I have 4
That is exactly what we have always done. 36 years. Our individual accounts are used to buy each other gifts too.
I have to shout my wife drinks drinks and dinner tho on dates 😂
Glad to know we’re doing this already!
We’ve got the main account for check deposits and bills.
We’ve got one checking account with two cards for food.
We’ve got another checking account with two cards for non-food items (gas, toilet paper, toothpaste, etc.).
We’ve each got our own checking account where we get an “allowance” every week.
Then we have three savings accounts - one for emergencies that we don’t touch, one for vacations since that’s something we wanted to focus on, and one for larger purchases (bigger items we want but don’t need like a tv, computer, etc.).
It helps us see where everything goes and we can adjust it when we need to!
Wow, my husband and I did this the second we got married. I thought he would be against it when I brought it up but he wasn’t. He thought it was a great idea. I’m glad we’re not the only ones of this mindset.
Been doing this for the last 18 years. Works a charm.
It is great because you dont have anyone overdrafting because they didnt check with their spouse.
You talk over the bills. You never take money out of savings except for emergencies. Then you each have your own petty funds account to keep track of without worrying about someone else's withdrawals.
My husband and I have separate and joint accounts and everyone I tell this to looks at me like I'm crazy. Foreign concept to some people we have been doing this for over 10 years. I never thought about it to be honest, when we met I had my own and he had his own, we just kept them, added each others names to them in case of emergency and then opened two different types of savings account. I love it.
before my husband and I divorced 12 years ago we each had our own separate individual accounts with our credit union and we had a joint accountl to take care of our household finances.
so it does work.
a lot of people think that it might not be a great idea to have your own separate accounts because everything is supposed to be together, as two becomes one...
BUT in this day and age, a lot of people forget the old school adage:
LOVE is LOVE, BUT BUSINESS is BUSINESS. and running a HOUSEHOLD is like running a BUSINESS.
IT is a personal FAMILIAL CORPORATION. even BUSINESS LAW would support that.
BUT you and your husband are DOING the right thing, and you already know why they thought it was crazy, because they may not have even thought about it LOL.
@ladiifourtwnty cookies just make sure never to make a joke. I repeated a joke to my wife before we got married. Forget what comedian made the joke. I changed it alittle and said " your money is your money and my money is your money" his joke was that's what his wife thought. Well 12yrs later wife with money arguments she still repeats it to me saying her and my money is all hers. She claims I wasn't joking as if I wouldn't know. For 12 yrs she has yet to help with bills. She didn't even have taxes taken from her pay so tax time I owed. For last 2 yrs she haven't worked but still keeps the 5k+ returns. I pay everything take her and our 2 kids out to eat weekly and pay for vacations and I buy and wrap our kids 🎁. She doesn't even remember my bd which is 9 days after hers. My marriage is so weird
Best thing ever! Been married for 24 years. We started with a joint account and he would over spend. We separated our accounts and the bills. Best thing ever! We would probably be divorced if we hadn’t.
@@dragonext2001 Oh my. Sorry, i feel bad on that one. Well I am old school as far it is alright for the woman to stay home and take care of the kids and house. But I am a little modern in that since I work and earn money then it is ours. We just keep it separate. My husband is old school as well so he also pays for everything and doesn't mind. I have to sneak and pay a bill before him if I want to do that. But to even it out, I buy all the groceries, household needs and wants, all kids stuff, clothing for house, and all of Christmas (except mine of course). It works out. I'm still contributing just not paying the mortgage, power, etc. I do not believe at all that a woman keeps 100% of her money and has the right to spend his. Separate bank accounts yes, but all the money is still ours. If there is an emergency it all will come together to handle it.
@ladiifourtwnty cookies Nope all the money is ours. That is an entitled mentality to have. Both must contribute in some way. If she doesn't work then she should be making sure he doesn't have to do anything when he gets home or is off. Except of course things she can't do. But my sons tell me i'm a unicorn that not many women think the way I do. So who knows, LOL
True facts brother Harvey 💯
Nearly 30 years ago I knew a married couple who lived by this principle and they never argued about money.
Me and my husband do this. I am actually a stay at home mom so we have one income. We have one that is for paying bills. Left over we split into our own account. And depending how much we got we put into savings. We don’t have much but it’s still something. It keeps us accountable and when ever we buy things for the kids we both pitch in. We have 5 and soon to be 6 kids. It works.
Lol so he funds your account? I don't think that's what he was trying to say
You have no job and very little money. But you have five kids and another one on the way six kids no money. It's time to start going to the movies or investing in condoms!! You shouldn't be having such a large family when you can't afford it that's terrible
@@spilledsoju03 they have 5-6 kids. Sometimes one parent staying home and not working is just as necessary as being the one that goes to a different job every day. If you think parenting 5 kids isn’t a very difficult you’re delusional, I’d take working 10+ hours a day labor.
@@dietznuts4014 yeah but you don’t do the fact in this situation is he funds her life. No one’s saying that situation isn’t agreeable or disagreeable for them, it’s just what the truth is
@@spilledsoju03 he's saying that you should have seperate accounts so you can do what you want and have independence. He didn't specify where the funds should come from. If there's only one income that's fine. They might make in one income the equivalent of what you make in two
Imagine having enough money that you can even think about having 4 bank accounts.
Even without that much money
When both of them work this can be pretty useful
It’s really not that hard of both have a job and you are more prudent with your spending.
You guys are so uneducated about money that you believe that nonesense…
If you both work, you should be perfectly able to do so. What you find difficult is to maintain the quality of life that you have, buying whatever you want, new phone? New car? New anything AND be able to have multiple bank accounts.
You can’t, except if you make enough money. Otherwise, you have to learn how fiances work and how to spend less on futile things.
I have 4 bank accounts on my own. One I get paid into, one I pay bills out of, one I carry the card for, and one to save a little each month for xmas and holidays. That way I can never unintentionally spend more on one thing than I planned to.
I also have a long-term saving account and a pension but I count them as investments rather than bank accounts.
It's very possible with 2 people.
Its crazy how many people blow their money away and dont even realize it. Those 89 cent drinks add up. At one point my so was the only one working she was making 11$/hr and we managed to pay our rent, utilities, student loan payments, car payments, and we managed to save some cash. It wasnt alot but we had a savings. And now those habits we built together 3 years ago are doing wonders for us now that we are both working better paying jobs.
Wise! Unfortunately nowadays there would only be one account necessary for most people. The necessity account. And that’s very very sad.

@@FlapjackR your marriage shouldn't work or not work based on how many accounts you have. That's crazy 😂
@@grumpynomad3551 I will always have a separate account. Don’t know how much debt I would be in if I hadn’t had my own account to pay my bills lol 😆
So true. This is always what my parents have done and always what I though everyone did growing up. When I got to adulthood I realized it wasn’t the case for most.
It's good advise too keep your money in order, but it won't solve your problems if you don't trust each other when it comes to spending. There are groceries, unexpected expenses, things you buy for the house, clothes etc, so you need to know that even thought you have freedom with your accounts no one would go crazy with it. You don't need to ask for everything, but you should both agree that if there's something you want to buy above certain amount you will consult it with each other to make sure you're good, budget-wise. So there's some freedom, but it's a responsible one.
I told my wife i need a seperate bank account..she started checking my phone
Right
You shouldn’t have said anything to her there’s certain things in your life that you should keep private not because he’s your wife.
We're halfway there. We have one checking account for bills, which is always barely enough, and another savings account which is empty. 👍 Yeah! Movin' on up!
yep! two more bank accounts to hold all of your dust bunnies and cobwebs.
Thats what we do, married for 14 years never argued over a single dime
Same! Congratulations 🎉
Exactly 💯
My mother told all 5 of her kids Exactly that.
So very grateful that I did this.
We have just a checking and savings account and we can spend whatever we want ourselves. I don't need permission to buy my own stuff, nor does he need mine - we just keep tabs on making sure we have enough for the necessities, and use common sense when making purchases. I will run larger purchases by by hubby, not because I need his permission but out of respect knowing our money is ours. We are one.
My husband and I have done this for 6 years now, works perfectly x
Clapping begins after “each have separate accounts” 🤣
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly what me and my wife do for 40 years now. Works well for us
When me and the wife started doing it this way thing started really moving foreward. Thank you
Good advice, we do it the other way around though. Contribute to the joint account from our personal accounts. the rest is hers is hers and mine is mine

I am Jamaican and Dominican and single, as young girl my parents teach me to have 1 account for savings, 2nd for emergency, 3rd for checking to pay bills such as light, mortgage ect. I started the 4th savings so that if something goes wrong with the house I have some help to fix it, when I get paid I have 3% to my 401k , $50 each to the other 3 accounts, and for the 4th /$20 to $30 for fixing the home. It doesn't take a lot to save you have to make sacrifices, I dont buy alot of fast food I have nice things but I save towards it. My cousin has a $800 car payment it doesn't include insurance and live with her 3 kinds from 3 different dads she is a single parent. You have to make certain decisions for the future of your well being. She lost her job and the car, she is using one of my cars and she lives with me so she can get on her feet. At your job work overtime if available, I work 2 jobs for 4 years to build up my savings. Once you reach 25 years old you must work on building up yourself no one is going to help you. I don't judge what you do for a living but save some of the money. Don't live above your means. Just saying?
Felt your struggle. God bless you
Thank you.... Really needed this motivation speech 🤔🤩
You're parents raised you well. This is what strength and independence looks like.

My husband and I have two joint accounts, but we keep our money separate. We can both access each other’s money if we need to- but our own money goes in our own accounts. He pays the big bills, I pay for groceries, travel and household necessities. 👐🏽
Sounds typical, let’s keep money separate but you pay the big bills, I’ll cover a few small ones

To each it's own...wouldn't work for me and mine. We have the same setup that's in the video.
@@dickhitswater4836 She's paying for vacations, That's Hardly EVER a SMALL AMOUNT of money! (Unless you vacationed like we did for about 10 years- bought a used, large camper, found our favorite campgrounds and felt we had a vacation every wkend! Those are such great memories) But, maybe in their situation, It was her way of making up for him paying the "big bills". Usually It all evens out in the end, Her hubby doesn't seem to mind that arrangement at all! IF we had the luxury to go on extravagant vacations every year, he'd gladly pay the "larger bills" if I'd pay for a vacation every year. Even back when we were young tho, raising our boys, he paid for most of everything, because from his experience, OTJ training & then college after Vietnam was over, the Air Force paid him to go to college. His skilled trade in the Air Force, easily transferred over to a Civilian job, and being a Veteran, AND an Electrical Engineer, there was NO way I could make half of what he made with a career in Healthcare. But it was more important to him though, that I stayed local, so IF our boys needed anything, I was always close enough to take care of them. Plus I was always the one that got them to baseball & football practice, guitar & drum lessons, while he traveled out of town most of the time. I could've drove to a bigger town, and made more money, but he said he preferred it this way, he felt I had job security, I carried the insurance on all of us, and then it was pretty convenient that I could arrange my schedule for breaks out of school, sick days, and like I said could get them to whatever they had going on after school, then get them home, showers, fix dinner, make sure they got their homework was done, and that I laundry all done. kept up on ALL the housework chores. Had I worked out of town, I couldn't have done both. Me beings with our boys was much more important to him, than me making more money than I did.
Now, with him retired, and myself becoming disabled, one boy out on his own, our youngest tragically being called to his Heavenly home, neither of us have any regrets how we chose the way to raise our family.... but we sure miss our babyboy.
Don't ever take your loved ones- especially your parents, your spouse & your kids for granted. Tomorrow isn't promised to any of us.
Bless You All.

I would add the.joint account keeps you both in check. Two become one. Also treat your.mate the way.you.wamt.to be treated. Way less arguments over $
Been married 34 years. Always had one joint account. If you need 4 accounts, there's something wrong.
Do not marry. Never.
No. It's not. We do this since almost 50 Years. First on Ovo Boxes no in Bankaccounts and it still works. And we are both Swiss
Or how about every relationship is different and different things work for different people? After 34 years, I'd hope you'd have understood that atleast.
I'm mid 30s, single, with a decent paying job. I started doing this 3 years ago. 1 account has all my bills on autopay, and that's where all my money goes into when my check deposits.
The 2nd account is a savings account with a better than average rate, which I move money to twice a month, the Monday after payday.
The 3rd account I put money in every month on the 1st of the month, and that's the money I use for when I wanna buy lunch or dinner, instead of cooking at home, or if I wanna go to the movies, etc.
Has really changed the way I spend money.
you should consider investing part of the money in that savings account in something safe like the S&P 500. Even with a good rate, you’re still losing money due to inflation, but the S&P averages 7+% annual return.
@@iancampbell1911 Lol 7% is a joke. Create your own business. Putting your own money to work will not only produce more for you but teach you things too. Letting other people put your money to work for them only teaches codependency.

I agree with Steve Harvey. Yeah, each person needs some of their own money to do something they want for their own happiness! That's the way it should be!
My first thought was "split private accounts are good, because then my man won't know where I buy his presents for how much and same the other way around" so I sent him this and realised it's also meant for me buying my own small things and vice versa hahaha
It's almost Christmas and he keeps asking me to make a list and I know he's going to give me something cool so I just want to give him something too and I guess we're always thinking about what to give the other or do together, especially with the holidays around the corner. 😅
Steve finally some good advice!!
I've thought this for decades now. Makes so much sense.
Ours doesn't work this way. We have 2 accounts. One both our checks go into, the other any bonuses and parts of our check go into.
We have a hard rule, you don't spend more than 200 dollars without checking in with each other first. It's not permission, it's communication.
That’s a good idea. It might eliminate some arguments over money which does cause many hurtful words that you can’t take back no matter how many times you say you’re sorry or told they’re sorry. It’s still in your head.
Awesome. Thanks Steve!!!

Like they may charge you $5/month for an account with less than $500 in it but after the account has more than $500 in it they waive the fee. This is in place to make more people put more money into the bank so the bank can use said money to invest in stocks and make a profit.
@@therussianbullfrog3975 oh you mean like a business..... no shit they want to make money lol like that's some mind of secret.....
@@davidlol1983 Bruh you were the one that said you didn't know banks had fees. No shit they want to make money and not have people with accounts of only $3. Like that's some kind of secret that we have been keeping from you.
I've seen both of my parents spend money the other needed for something. This is how it should be done, although it's much harder if you live paycheck to paycheck
