I have heard that there are times whereby combining salaries and crediting it to a joint savings account is what most people do nowadays. However, I have also heard of instances whereby this isn't true and that more can be gained from crediting your own salaries into a personals high i/r savings account.

Yes.
Some of my "couple" clients do set aside a joint account purely for emergency funds. They prefer Citibank Maxigain because of the higher interest rates and that the conditions are easy for them to meet.

Hi,
It is definitely not common for couples to channel their respective salaries into a joint savings account. What i found more common is that couples would each contribute a pre-determined amount into a joint savings account regularly. My wife and I are comfortable channeling our salaries into a joint account and we have managed to increase the interest rate of our savings in this manner.
