Cash Flow Management AND Living Together

Develop a method for bill paying with your partner.
Many unmarried couples prefer to hold separate credit cards and bank accounts, and divide household expenses evenly or proportionate to each partner's incomes.
Keeping assets separate from your partners prevents the problem of becoming liable for a partner’s debts. If financial accounts are commingled, creditors can seize the assets of one partner to pay the debts of the other.
Check with an attorney about the impact of cohabitation on alimony and child support from a previous marriage. State laws vary—in some states, payments may be affected.
Social Security benefits are not affected by cohabitation, however. This is why some retirees choose to live together rather than marry and suffer a reduction in income.
