It's none of my business. I'm just curious. I don't exspect the truth. If you say no, you may. If you say yes, you probably don't. LOL How many will be honest? If it will make you feel better, I do.

I think having an account that your spouse doesn't know about is just showing your trying to hide something ....

This is not a good idea. Marriage is based on honesty and trust. Most couples fight about money from time to time. You are causing a potential battlefield by doing this. Tell your spouse. If something should happen to you, like you become ill and end up in a hospital only you can touch the money if only your name is on the account. This will do HIM no good in case of an emergency. Have a rainy day account with both your names on it but agree to not touch it unless you both agree it is an emergency situation.

No, we have such a great open relationship and I'm not a big spender. I don't buy stuff unless i HAVE to. We trust each other. I'm in charge of the finances, but I printed a list of all accounts, passwords and important information (he's not computer savvy) just in case something happens to me. We sit down every month to talk about bills and stuff.

I have my own savings account with his name not on it and he doesn't know about it. The reason is because, whatever he makes and I make together, he expects me to put all my hard earned money into the same account as his so, he can go spend money and buy crap he never uses with it. So, I opened up my own savings account and I put half of what I make into this account and the other half goes with our account. I don't think this has anything to do with hiding something from him/her. If he/she cannot save money rather than spending it all up then, why not open up an account with your own name, at least you'll know you will always have something if you need it.

No I don't. I don't see the point in that. What good is a relationship if you can't be honest with each other. There is no reason to have a hidden acount unless you are trying to hide something and in that case you are just lying about who you are and the relationship will eventually falter

No I have nothing to hide. I have seperate accounts. As I prefer to have my own independence. Might I say I do not wish to be attached monetarily to the x that wont leave me alone either.

I tried to open a savings account - it was attached to the checking in case we went overdrawn. he took money out of the ATM and it gave him the balance to the savings. If I had an account like that, I would be saving for a special gift or a trip for the family. those are the only reasons to be dishonest. unless you are planning a divorce, in which case you need money to get started somewhere else.

Yes my husband has learned long after the fact of my accounts, bank and credit cards.
as long as I keep him happy and his suger mama, I can do as I please with my money, I horde it and have actual savings account.
He cant complain, he learned of a new account I opened when I handed him his card at thanks giving and instructed him this was his spending limit for x-mas.....
So what if I have had that account for over a year with out him knowing....
