I happen to have a lot more financial and "money matters" (paying the bills, mortgages, retirement savings, bank accounts, taxes, etc.) than my husband, if only because I have lived away from my parents since I was 16 and have some interests in fiscal matters (go figure). However since we got married I make big efforts to get him involved and the few financial decisions we make we make together (with a financial advisor), such as the budget, our savings, etc. Thankfully we have no debt and sufficient revenue, so it's much easier and not tense.

I voted "shared" but in fact it's probably more 60% me since I do a lot of the day-to-day management still (keeping Quicken up do date and paying bills) but we'll transition to giving him that responsibility over the next year so that he can learn more about this.

Parents: don't shield your children from money matters, please. Help them learn, and learn with them!
