My friend gave me some good advice (or I thought it was) where when you are married; you have 3 acts. One account, both paychecks go into it; then each person has their own personal 'slush act' so everyone has an allowance where you can spend it on whatever you like without feeling guilty or anything. This way you keep the whole 'traditional' where it's 'our money' but you still have your $$ for your own vices etc.
