Hi Everybody, Just wondering how everyone else handles money matters....I live with my partner and our five children. We both came from hetero marriages, both 15+ years. Immediately upon starting our lives together, we pooled our resources. We have one checking account, one savings account, etc. My partner owns the house (in her name) and my ex h got our house. I have since been told by a lesbian friend that this is not the best idea, as there is no legal protections for lesbian couples under the law. Do you think seperate accounts is more advisable? How would/do you handle money in your lesbian relationship? Thanks, and Happy Halloween! =)
