In my 31+ years of marriage I don't think she has funded any beer purchases for me.
We got married late in life, and we both owned houses, and had checking accounts & credit cards. I got my money, she has hers. We are both on each others accounts but that is for legal reasons only. Heck she still goes by her maiden name. She already had a career and was known by her name. The only time she uses my last name is at Porsche club events where she wants to be identified as my wife since almost all the long time members know me.
It is kinda funny checking into a hotel as MR & MRS and then she shows her ID and it is a totally different name. He legal name is her first name, but she goes by her middle name.
With no kids there was no reason to bother changing her last name.
For large purchases like her Macan, or this house, we just fund it together. However I paid for all of my 911 and my El Camino, but they were a lot less money back then.
