I'm just wondering what other people think about this? There are issues in marriage regarding who should keep all the income that a wife and a husband have? The usual is the wife but there are husbands who dont remit their income to their wife what do you think about this?

this is funny. i am the wife but i don't keep the budget. it would be a disaster if i do. what hubby and i did was to allocate our earnings. i pay for everything the house needs - grocery, maid's salary, hubby's food budget, electric bill and phone bill. hubby pays for the car, house rent, water bill and saves for the rainy day. other things i get to buy because i sell online. we trust each other. it will kill me if i have to budget because i tend to move things around.
