not advisable, sorry very good. Oh know, I don't think it works. It causes trouble, may be it might work? what if it does not work?
@op, whatever floats your boat. Marriage A, different from B, C,D, E. What works for your marriage might not work for others. That is what we term as "GRACE"

We have a joint account into which we put a fixed amount of money each at the end of month.

We also opened an account for our child in this same bank and ordered the bank to remove a fixed amount from the joint and deposit into our child's account.

God forbid evil. At least our child's account will continue to be credited for as long as there is something in the joint.

We still have our personal accounts too o. So that none of us depends on the joint for survival.

This can only happen when there is trust and both spouse are financially independent.

The number one cause for marriage failures and problems is Money. There will be issues with how money is spent sooner rather than later.
