My wife and I started out this way and do still have our own single bank
accounts for our own stuff. HOWEVER, big projects like the new air conditioner
we needed 4 years ago, and the complete repaneling and upgrades to our
electrical and HVAC are just too big for one to shoulder. We take that debt on
together and regret all our decsions later. :P
