The wife and I have a joint bank account but we each have our own bank
accounts as well. She makes the same amount of money that I do and we
split our expenses. We don't really talk about money.
When she buys two new pairs of boots, I tell her that she looks like
the Bumble but I never ask how much money they were.
When I buy random electronic equipment from ebay, she pretends to
listen while watching some shitty show on television with doctors who
sleep with every other doctor in the universe. She never asks how
much anything costs.
Last night after getting home late for the fourth night in a row, I
commented, "I'm glad I spent 500 bucks on that fucking Xbox, since I
haven't even turned it on since the fucking weekend."
"HOW MUCH DID THAT THING COST?"
Oops, time to get back to mutual nondisclosure.
