I know there are folks in the Singles Lounge who are married, separated, divorced, and never married. But I'd like anyone to respond to this.

How should a couple manage the money that either or both of them bring in?
Should they each have their own checking/savings accounts? Should they only have one?
There own credit cards?
If one earns substantially more than the other, should they be allowed a louder voice in the matters?
Should the lesser earning one pay an equal amount to mutual bills/utilities?
Who should pay the bills?
How would you do it?

Money was an issue in my marriage, but I won't air that laundry. BTW "money" when a marital problem, is an is a term which typically is symbollic of many other deeply rooted problems....it is a symptom and not the problem.

Anyway, I hope to marry again one day, but I'd like to learn a fair resource management strategy, keyword being "fair". I got the short end of the stick last time.
