Money has always been somewhat of a taboo subject, especially when it comes to talking about someone's salary, but I'm curious: Do you know how much your significant other makes?

Funny thing about being married, we know what we both make.
1I know what he makes and he knows what I make. Only fair.
2We work together, and lately, in this economy, we DON'T work together! So we know
3no, not really.. and we live together! I suppose I could guess and be close though.
we keep our finances very separate -- as it should be! We're not married so there's no reason for us to combine incomes or know what the other is making.
4Of course I know.....I think it would be weird NOT to know!
5We live together, have a combined account, but we're not married. Of course I know what he makes.
6i have always known what my significant other made. i would think it VERY odd if that was a taboo subject. if you're sharing my bed you already have the most important part of me, why would i hide money? why would they?
7I know not because I discuss everything with him. We don't have combined accounts or anything, though. He knows what I make, I know what he makes. We know about each other's debt (student loans and what not). I think once you reach a certain stage it's weird not to know..
8I figured you usually talk about everything. Why should it really matter all that much, it's not like you're handing over your paycheck every time you get it, with $0 for you...right?....Right? (LoL...I hope I don't...maybe I shouldn't get married...hahah).
9We live together, don't have combined finances, but we still know what each other makes. Not to the penny, but a good general idea.
10yep! i tell him what i make every time i get a raise at my one job. and he also knows how much i charge to plan parties for my own business.
11i know what he makes because he recently got a new job [about 4 months ago] and the pay was factored into his decision.
i knew a ballpark estimate....
12I've been married for almost 3 years now and I know what he makes and he knows what I make just by the bank account.
13My bf tries to tell me but it doesn't really matter to me until we get married or something.
14only until he would tell me..
15He's very open about everything and talks about how much he spends, makes, etc
16He knows what I make, I know what he makes. What we don't know is how much the other spends.
17I shared with him since we just moved in together, so yes, we both know.
18We both know what the other makes. He has a bad habit of spending money on unnecessary things so I every month I help him pay down is cc bill. I put him on a budget with his own money lol.
19he told me and i cant remember the exact figure but i know within 5K
20I make nothing and he makes everything!
=)
I see his wage slips and he tells me whenever he gets a wage increase. He's had three in the last year.
21We're married and I know how much he makes, but we keep our finances fairly seperate.
22Yep.
23I usually ask kinda up front.
I know what my bf makes because he hands me his check every week now that we live together. I knew before because we were always open about it.
24Yup...but we keep our finances separate for now (we're married).
