10 Things To Consider Before Comingling Finances

- By

Have there been accountability issues?

This is another time when you may need to face some realities you’d been blissfully avoiding. Maybe your partner doesn’t take accountability for his actions. You’ve been mostly protected from the consequences, but you may not be if you comingle finances. Take for example a partner who has an issue with authority, and keeps getting fired from jobs over it. He refuses to consider what he may have done wrong, making the same mistake at job after job. What happens when he wants to dip into your then joint account to cover his bills, when he loses another job? Only comingle finances with someone who you feel takes accountability for their actions and can hold down a job. Your hard-earned and saved money shouldn’t become his emergency fund.
