    I don't think your bank balance will affect anything.. I have read of several people having just a few hundred in the account.. They just want to see that you are sharing finances. He didn't even keep the part that said the balance, just the names on it. The other part, I don't know. I don't...

    Tampa AOS interviews

    Thanks very much Jane! You are such a great help! Interesting that they would do that.. I figured on secret cameras.. but the hidden guy, that was a nice touch. It is probably a great way to do that though.. people under stress are less likely to remember to fake intimacy, than a real couple.
