Ownership of two people where "I" am part owner

This drives me absolutely crazy and I'm hearing it often from intelligent people.

Example:
"Greg and I's relationship."

Should it not be the following:
"Greg's and my relationship"

Am I wrong?

Re: Ownership of two people where "I" am part owner

"Greg's and my relationship" is preferable to "Greg and I's relationship" (which is wrong).

"Mine and Greg's relationship" is the best way to say it.

Here's a quick lesson joint ownership with apostrophes. (It's at the very bottom of the page.)
