My partner and I are moving in together. We have discussed finances and have decided that salaries will be paid into a joint account, bills and joint spending will be paid out of that account, then we will both take out the same amount of money to spend on ourselves.
He earns a little more than me, but not much. He however has more savings than me.
We will need some money upfront to pay things like deposit in rented flat, some furniture etc, so WIBU to suggest that he puts a little more into the pot to cover these initial expenses, or should we go halves? I have 4K in savings, he has around 10k. If I put in 3k, and he put in 4.5k, would this be fair? I would be putting in less, but a higher percentage of total savings.
Thoughts?
