Which split is fair?
Splitting by income means you each give up the same share of what you earn. If one of you earns 60 % of the total, they pay 60 % of rent, food and bills.
Splitting 50/50 feels equal, but when incomes differ a lot, the one who earns less can end up with almost nothing left while the other saves.
Same left over goes furthest: you share everything so you both have the same to spend. It suits couples who see all money as shared.
Frequently asked questions
