AyrshireTon Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Ex-wife and I had a joint account. Technically, she was added to mine. Was a pain in the arse to go through the rigmarole of taking her back off it when we split. My wife and I never bothered with a joint account. I pay the mortgage and the house-related bills, she buys the food and clothing etc. in this digital era, it’s easy enough for one of us to send the other cash if we need to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 So aye - 'apparently' Michelle Mone & Dougie Barrowman don't have a joint account Just an offshore trust with at least £29m in it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has her own account which she transfers into each month. I've also got credit cards, a Very account and a PayPal credit account but she knows exactly what's on them - they tend to be used for larger purchases - taking advantage of BNPL deals and low interest balance transfers. At the start of each month I'll do a budget but we go over it together to make sure I've not missed anything. If either of us are going to make a large purchase we discuss it first - more about how we're paying for it rather than what it is for. It seems to work - we should be completely debt free by June (we've paid our mortgage off in 16 years) so she can retire early then.

guinness Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I would say separate all the way because she would have a hairy fit, on how much I contributed to Bet365's growing income 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in my view When I won, I would tell my ex & she would want a cut. So I said fair enough when I lose you can give me a bung. She soon shut up But after that I never told her Sfa. Basically it's feck all to do with her unless we end up in the grubber which hasn't happened so far 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
