When we were younger we used to have 1 joint account, and then we each had a personal account. For rent, groceries, etc, we used the joint account to which we both pooled a percentage of the salary.

Later on as we grew older, got married, that kind of stopped. We don't have her salary or my salary, we have our salary.

I guess it depends on people, on couples, on relationships. What works for us may not work for others. We're a team, we pool in everything we both get, we have goals and objectives for the money and we allocate it as such. But we also spoil ourselves, if she wants to buy something she does, if I want to buy something I do. It doesn't matter for us because that's our money.

We used to be on the same level, till last year, she now earns 3x what I earn and it doesn't matter. It's not "oh i make more than you so you should do more things around the house" but rather "we make more now, so we can do more, travel more, etc".
