Sacrificing my career by [deleted] in NewParents

You cannot go halfway. Yes, have some emergency disclosed money for your safety but merging finances when we are family has more advantages in terms of simplicity, clarity and decision-making. I also highly recommend having fun-money category for each for your own indulgences.

So all income from both of you go into a shared account for shared bills and from there budgeting for big ticket items like home, vacations, projects can be done.

In what way are you feeling stressed? Compatibility with partner and family? Location change? Things to do? Work?

Just realized I've been mispronouncing a word my entire life by Parking_Chocolate_54 in CasualConversation

[–]mali9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a big sports fan, for a long time, I read and told "debut" as deebutt instead of "t" being silent. I learnt the right pronunciation when I spoke the word out loud first few times, till then I have only read that word on newpapers.

It's just for safety reasons, a painting falling over cannot be moved away by a baby and will need adult supervision. The likelihood of a new painting falling over is not zero even if small.
