That last list gives me a lot of hope for my own kids when they’re old enough to take on some responsibility :)

And too funny about your husband not wanting to know when $$$ is down, haha…

At least one of you will always be in the know!

Me:
Work full time
Invest/Savings/Budget – I keep hubby posted on what I’m spending bonuses on and how much we have in investments (if it goes down, he doesn’t want to know)
Cleaning/Dishes & everything else (I hired someone to clean the bathrooms and floors weekly to keep my sanity)
Some Laundry
Grocery Shopping
Household Shopping including clothes
Plan all travel (everything!)
Cooking (dinners/meal plan & pack all lunches)

Kids:
Yard Work
Laundry
Trash
Clean their rooms
Help w/dinners
Unload dishwasher

Thanks for playing along here, glad you’re enjoying the blog :)

This time around I have a good situation. My wife and I both have the same financial vision. When we spend money, it’s more on experiences and not stuff. Both of us don’t buy crap just for the sake of shopping and we have 7-year-old cars. We’re not into the shiny object syndrome. Although I have to say, it took me a while to figure out how to smart with money.

Excellent idea!!!!!

Better yet, why not print it out and paste it on the mirror once a month for a not-so-subtle reminder, hmm….

She is in charge of the smaller household chores and manages our day to day finances. We have been doing this for most of our 38 years together and it seems to work out just fine.

I also had trouble with her not knowing where we were in net worth, so I put a spread sheet on the desktop of her computer so she can open it whenever she would like to see the numbers. Seems to work mostly, I just have to remember to update it every few months.

That’s a beautiful thing!

Good thing our spouses have us! Haha… (And that we enjoy this stuff :))

Hahahaah… point taken! I remember once leaving a rotten banana in my shorts back in college. That was NOT pretty, haha… We’re an interesting species, us boys.
