    Why Most Couples Split Expenses Wrong (And What to Do Instead)

    Most couples handle shared finances one of two ways — everything in one pot, or a straight 50/50 split. In this episode, Lucas Marsh, CFP® and founder of Engineered Wealth Management, makes the case for a third option: proportional expense splitting based on income. Lucas shares the exact system he and his wife have used for 10 years, including a walkthrough of the household expense spreadsheet they use every month. You'll hear why equal contributions don't always mean equal sacrifice — and how the right system can take money fights off the table entirely. In this episode: Why the one-pot and 50/50 methods often breed resentmentThe five reasons proportional splitting works betterHow the spreadsheet works — fairness, transparency, autonomy, adaptability, and scalabilityWhy this system runs on autopilot, no monthly money arguments requiredA teaser on backdoor Roth contributions for high earners📊 Free Spreadsheet TemplateGrab the household expense-splitting spreadsheet mentioned in this episode:👉 https://engineeredwealthmanagement.com/monthly-family-contributions/ 🎥 Related ContentWe reference our Monthly Family Meeting episode in this one — worth a listen if you haven't heard it yet.

    Ep. 2 — The Monthly Family Meeting: The One System That Changed How We Run Our Household

    In this episode I'm sharing the most impactful thing my wife and I have implemented as a family — the Monthly Family Meeting. Before we started doing this, our household felt reactive. Finances were chaotic, kids' activities slipped through the cracks, and important conversations kept getting pushed to the worst possible moments. One structured monthly meeting changed all of that. I walk through the exact agenda we use every month — covering finances, the family calendar, goal setting, open items, and more. It takes about as long as a Netflix episode and has genuinely strengthened both our household and our relationship as a couple. If you're a busy professional or parent trying to get more aligned with your partner and get ahead of the chaos, this one's for you.
