I think it takes two people who generally think alike when it comes to money. We are both very frugal and think ahead. Whenever we borrow, we make a big issue out of paying off our debt asap. We both want a secure retirement and understand the value of saving. I know it isn't true for everyone, and I don't know where those attributes came from, but they work for us. Money is a very important element of our existence.

My wife and I have a terrific financial arrangement. She makes all the little decisions like which house we are going to live in, which furniture and appliances we need, what clothes to buy, etc. I get to make all the big decisions like how to pay for all of it. The two things we have always agreed on is to save and invest a bit from every paycheck and pay cash for anything that depreciates. Recently, I told her we probably don't need to continue to save. She gave me a look that ended that discussion cold. :o)
