With presents, thoughtful gestures and undying love like a normal person.How are the shared account people surprising each other on their birthdays?
Yes, that's true. When I was out-earned 3:2, the fixed amount paid to the credit card was weighted the same way and the frivolous stuff - dinners out and the like - mostly fell to him.We always shared money cos it seemed fairer that way. Why should I have more money cos I happen to work in tech and Mrs. egg_ works in wildlife conservation?
It's the presents I'm wondering about. Just the logistics. How do manage a surprise weekend away, say?With presents, thoughtful gestures and undying love like a normal person.
Well, I have three kids and a neurodiverse wife - the joint account isn’t the barrier to the surprise weekend there. Honestly, a surprise weekend is not something that either of us would be enjoying that much and we tend to stick to small surprises in general, both of us would rather buy the other person exactly what they want rather than spend money on something that would be wasted.How do manage a surprise weekend away, say?
Hahaha indeed. Don't think we ever had a surprise weekend. Before kids we had no money, and now every weekend is scheduled months in advance. If I had a surprise weekend planned I'd have to deflect countless attempts to put something into the calendar clashing with it, which would mean it was no longer a surpriseSurprise weekends? holy shit.
I think the big pro for joint accounts is easy access to money when one of you dies, as @Cornu Ammonis said.I'm not trying to be disingenuous here, by the way, I just assumed separate accounts were the norm and now that I'm examining the notion I don't see many cons (except surprises), but I don't see any pros either.
But then you could fuck your Honda Civic.for me one of the main issues would be 'fuck, i own a horse now'.
Not literally.But then you could fuck your Honda Civic.
A runner I met last year after a race , we talk now every now and then.Is there a word for someone who must like or endures pain but doesn't get sexual gratification from it?
If there is, I think that describes me and I should have realised it well before now.
Yeah. Kinda.That's type 2 fun - doing something unpleasant and difficult because the "achievement" makes it all worthwhile
Not for me
You’d own a horse *and* you now don’t have access to half the money that you did just moments before.for me one of the main issues would be 'fuck, i own a horse now'.
