Yeah, this is year 5, and we just figured this out but we're definitely in better financial shape because of it. While my husband makes more, he's not a money guy. Ask him the balance of his checking account, and he wouldn't have a clue. I am more of the money person, so doing it this way allows me control over the bills and savings.
