the key to happiness is having a joint account for the bills and separate accounts for personal funny money. Makes her feel independent but at the same time the bills get paid and your car stash is easy to accumulate. that is unless she runs out of money half way through her pay period.... then asks if she can move money around..Wow, you got yourself a keeper there dude! I got engaged earlier this year so I gotta make sure I get all my car stuff done before we join our accounts LOLMine can't drive a stick so I'm at least safe on the her driving it part
