DH used to handle all of our money/bills but he was horrible at it so I took over. I like it better this way

We automate all of our bills, i look after our expenses/budget/investments, and DH looks after our accounts in general. We usually discuss the health of our finances every month or so.
-
I do. I'm trying to figure out a schedule that works for us before I set them all to auto-draft. I am having a rough time smoothing out the kinks b/c we have like 6 new bills now and every bill we have is due in a 9 day span!
I wish DH would take this over. I get so stressed out over it!
-
I do, because I'm a bit obsessive over planning and spreadsheets. We make all financial decisions together, and I keep him informed of how much we have, but he doesn't ever check the bank accounts or anything. He offers to handle it when I get stressed, but I'd be more stressed if I didn't handle it myself
-
@MrsTiz: We have this issue too. A lot of our bills are due at the end of the month so we get stressed out that they are all due at once.
-
I do. He misses payments on the only bills he's responsible for.
-
DH does...I should maybe do this out of fairness when I start staying at home, but I just don't want to!
-
We split.
-
DH does... he even has financial statements for us which he reconciles nightly.. he's a dork
-
@littlek: I like his organization!
-
Me.
-
Dh does everything...he works in finance and knows much more about that stuff than I do.
-
I do everything except Hubs' student loans and car insurance.
-
I do it all. So much easier! DH would be really bad at it I think! We discuss together how much to save and such, but I'm the one that moves money around and pays bills.
-
I do it all because I like to deal with the finances and I'm better at it.
-
DH does, for the most part. We have separate accounts and one joint so we look after our own as well, which I am bad at!
-
We both do. I pay bills that are in my name, he pays the ones in his name. All come out of our joint account, though.
-
All our bills and credit cards are automated so no one really has to handle it or keep watch. We both just glace at account balances every now and then to see where it's at.
-
We have everything set up for autopay so it's really easy to handle. If a bill comes in, whoever sees it first pays it.
-
We split up the bills, and how we handle them depends on our personality. I know I'm not as good with keeping up with things so everything on my end is automated.
-
i take care of the finances, but DH knows everything we spend. i'm just the one actually setting up bill pays, etc.
-
We both handle different bills. I pay my credit card, my mortgage for my house in Texas, all the bills for the house in texas, my medical bills, and my student loan payments. DH pays our rent here, our electricity and cable here, and us eating out/going out. Whoever goes to the grocery store pays that time.
We have a weird system, but it feels strange to me to have DH in charge of paying for things like my mortgage, when I bought the house before I met him.
-
Mostly me. DH pays his bills, I pay all the household and my bills and I keep track of our budget and how much we're spending and it's my responsibility to let him know if we're having a tight month or need to slow down, etc. It just kind of fell on me, we didn't plan on it this way. I'd prefer it if he kept better track as well.
-
I do the budget, but he actually pays the bills when they arrive out of our joint account.
-
I do it, and I'm way better at it.
-
I handle all our money. I actually track our bills (due date and amount) in a Google calendar. Makes it so much easier to manage!
-
Mostly me. I work at the bank were our accounts are so it just makes sense. But hubs has taken over fighting with the stupid hospital about all my recent medical bills. They were WAY over charging us and it was seriously stressing me out.
