How do you handle discretionary spending in retirement? Right now, we're still w*rking, and both have separate accounts. We don't answer to one another for our Amazon Prime habits, or gun purchases, or just one more pair of shoes, or another purse, or a box of expensive cigars, more chrome for the motorcycle, tickets to concerts with the girls, etc....
Is there a line item in your budget for money to each of you to spend without answering to the other?
We're both pretty independent souls, and I fear this will be an issue in a few years when we both give notice. Now I just roll my eyes when he buys some of these manly things that I think are completely unnecessary.![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
