The biggest thing, I think, is individuality. A think one of the hardest hurdles to get over in a marriage is losing your sense of individuality to the marriage. People no longer look at you as one person, but, rather, a couple. If you can find ways to retain your individuality (and thus your individual choices), I think you can save yourself some tension.
Plus, it automatically alleviates any "fights" you might have over who spent what. When you have your *own* money, that no longer becomes an issue.
