Is splitting by income fair?
It means everyone gives up the same share of what they earn. Many couples prefer it when incomes are far apart; others split evenly. Both work if everyone agrees.
Split costs fairly by income
Share rent and bills in proportion to what each person earns, so everyone puts in the same share of their income.
Use take-home pay for everyone, so taxes don't tilt the split.

Questions
Which costs should we share?
Usually rent, utilities, groceries and anything you both use. Personal spending stays with each person.
How does BudgetPro help with shared costs?
Put shared costs in their own categories and BudgetPro shows what the household spends each month, so you split real numbers, not guesses.
