Well, then I'd suggest getting your own checking account and not sharing. All assets obtained during the marriage are marital assets subject to division during dissolution. But during the marriage, you have rights to money that you have in your possession, i.e. if the checking account is in your name then she can't access it. Although if she files for divorce, she could end up with it anyway!
