However, I knew you were going to go there, Jennifer. However, the parties typically paid their expenses during the intact marriage.

That should continue. It just means keeping the same thing going. So if the income of the party’s income went into a joint account, and from that joint account, the mortgage was paid, the car payments were made, utilities were paid, the best rule of thumb is maintain the status quo. Continue the same methodology of receiving income and paying expenses.
