Paul, I agree with that to an extent. Fortunately, I'm not doing anything different than I did before. We only have one checking account and one credit card. We rarely use the credit card unless it's a major item so 98% of the time we spend money, it's on the joint account. If I was doing it SIMPLY to make a point, then obviously that would be wrong. But she clearly notices. Sadly, it is nice to have a little bit of freedom. As much as I want to save my marriage, I would have had to go 5 rounds with her if I wanted to spend several hundred dollars on a set of golf clubs. I needed a new set badly and it was nice to just be able to go do it and not have to worry about her.
If we couldn't afford it then I'd feel bad. But we can and it was kind of fun to just go get something I need and want without an hour long coversation about whether or not it's necessary.
