When it comes to your household finances, are you and your spouse more like business partners, or more like covenant partners? Married couples having separate bank accounts is a hot button topic no matter how you slice it. There is a great divide as to whether or not it is good practice for married couples to have “money on the side” apart from their spouse.
With that in mind, we reached out to a couple of experts on the matter. In this episode of The His & Her Money Show, we interview Derek and Carrie Olsen authors of the book, One Bed One Bank Account. Derek and Carrie teach and train couples on marriage and money.
