What sort of financial arguments/disputes can there be between husband and wife?

Example of some of the problems I know:


-When husband earns most of the money, but the wife spends most of it, or disproportionately more.


-When one spouse sets up a business with his/her parents' capital, and decides to give a part ownership of that business to his/her parents but not the spouse's parents.





I will be interested to see what other possible financial dilemmas take place.|||Finances is the number one source of dispute in marriage.





-dispute about how to use extra income (i.e. overtime, raise or bonus)


-dispute about what you are able to afford (many spouses disagree on this one)


-dispute about who should manage finances








The list goes on %26amp; on....








My husband %26amp; I have "his", "hers" and "ours" accounts..."ours" is for bills, vacations, savings, etc....then, we each get the same amount of disposable income in our separate accounts...We don't have to ask each other to spend anything in our own accounts...and we are happily married 11 years with no financial arguments.|||She will come home with shopping bags full of stuff that you don't need, and put it all on a credit card,, and you'll buy "guy toys" and put it on a credit card.. and you will argue when the credit card gets maxed who is responsible. Do yourself a favour, cut all your credit cards up except one, and keep that one in your (or her) sock drawer, NEVER, in your wallet. Try to agree to discuss any purchase over a "set" amount before making it.





Erica, has a good point about separate accounts for disposable income, we just started doing that, and it works!|||list is too long to post here!
