I’m curious how you budget as a couple or budget with family. Does one person take the lead and it’s their duty? Are you equal participants? Does each person leverage their strengths?

What works for you?

    We are both frugal. We discuss purchases above a certain amount, which changes with our finances. We generally communicate a lot.

    It works best if both are involved. It can work fine if one takes the lead and informs the other.

    A caution: Any times one feels the urge to hide something, immediately tell the other about the thing. It avoids a lot of problems.
