I’m finding it harder and harder to tell my wife that I’m buying a new watch. After about 4 watches, she can’t understand why I would buy more. I’m curious as to smartest or most interesting way that someone has used to get around this issue.

this is the way. my wife and I separated our finances at the beginning of our marriage and it’s the best decision we’ve ever made. regardless of who makes how much, having some bucket of money you aren’t accountable to your spouse for is a pretty incredible pressure valve.
Do y’all have a seperate joint account for the big stuff? I’ve heard of couples have a hybrid arrangement like that.
yeah - we have a joint account that we both contribute to that covers family expenses, mortgage, etc.
