How can we help today?

Hi, yes, I'm just calling wondering if the way my fiance is splitting the finances with us, with me, is the right way.
Dr. John Deloney (0:43)

Caller Shelby (1:09)
So, long story short, I, my fiance are a blended family. We do own a home together. I have three kids. He has one. I, my ex, who passed away years ago, left me in a financial situation where I did have to file bankruptcy before I got to my fiance. I then built myself back up, got myself, you know, a very six figure paying job, you know, moved throughout, and now we have one joint, checking. But the mortgage is the only thing that comes out of that. And then everything else.
