Do your wives not ever spend any money on things that they want???
If we didn't have so many Precious Moments figurines... I Wouldn't have a mortgage!
Then again, if "we" didn't have so many Cubs, I probably wouldn't have one either...
OK, that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but the point is; pay your bills, save some, let her spend some and you can spend some.
Then again... How much will that really nice Cub Cadet be worth in another 20 or 30 years???
I have told my Daughter, "When I'm gone, sell these off one at a time (don't flood the market) and you WILL end up with a pretty decent chunk of change." I have also been know to tell Betsy that "I'm saving to help put some of the Grandkids through college."
Besides that, my hobbies keep me out of her way... Pretty sure she couldn't stand me "under foot" all of the time.
