Financial infidelity is one of those common things that we've only just started learning how to talk about. When you have a joint account, you need to have a lot of discussions about how that account gets used, and just what you're spending money on.

But even if you do have all the necessary conversations, it won't stop duplicitous people from going behind your back and spending money in ways you don't approve of.
