The Decision to Start the Business?

This is a topic that is important because starting a business not only affects the business man, it also affects the family including the children and of course the wife! It depends of course on whether the business was started before the marriage but after marriage enters the picture....the question "who makes the decision to start the business?" needs to be asked? Is it a joint effort and or an individual effort?  What are some of your thoughts?

As my business man (bizmen) and i are currently in the engagement process, he is definitely able to make his own decisions however he has to consider my feelings because we are in the process of marriage preparation!  However before hand, pre-engagement, he was able to do as he pleases!
I suppose that's what happens when marriage enters the pictures. 

I believe that whether it is an individual decision or joint decision impacts on how things are carried out and how involved you are in the business.  When my bizmen and i started, i was helping him with some random things like making calls, helping with the website and whatever he needed help with.  And this has been fine because the decision was not a joint one!  I believe with joint decision making comes the power to dictate important things about the business! 

How was the decision to start a business made in your household?
