	We pool all the money and have joint accounts. We both make
about the same amount, so there is really no question of it being
65% mine and 35% hers. We got married in college, and at that time
there was no question about where the little money we made was
going. Since graduation, we just kept pooling the money, even when
one made more than the other. The only problem is who carries the
checkbook, and since the advent of plastic, this is not a major
concern. Sure, we still have "discussions" about what luxury items
to buy, but neither of us has ever tried to pull the "I make more
so I should be able to spend it" argument.
