Justify your purchase

[sonofagun]

Notice I said future wife?

Hmm...seems to be what she's aiming for...

 

[grahamsy2k]

Luckly Im not married and I do what I want with my money.

 

[Birds Away]

I don't have to justify anything. Been divorced for four years.

 

[terrythegamer]

No justification needed what i spend on me she spends on her may not always tell her the true price but i bet she doesn't either

 

[joshualee49]

I am the primary breadwinner. My wife is actually pretty loose with the money she makes from her job. It pays for her whims, which is fine by me. I pay 98% of the household bills, including groceries and gas money. If I choose to go out and spend some cash on myself or a hobby that we both enjoy doing, I don't stop to ask permission first. If she paid half the bills it would be different. I don't make her report every nickel she blows on cigarettes, red bull, makeup, shoes, or hair dye. She doesn't question me when I bring a new firearm home, or a couple thousand bullet heads, or a bucket of brass, etc. She knows I am pretty frugal with my cash so she pretty much trusts that I'm not going to go blow the electric bill money on 1911 mags....

I pay all the bills, including the ones for my guns, so why do I have to ask?

I pay all the bills including the ones for my guns, so why would I have to ask to buy one

Justify your purchase

Oh, that's easy!

Tamara: "I wanted to buy this."

Tamara: "Okay."

What do I win?

 

[No2rdame]

I point out to her all the $$$ she's spent on Dooney & Bourke handbags. Of course, that's when SHTF...

If that doesn't work I give her sad, long, puppy dog eyes and beg and plead until she gives in just to shut me up.

I've only been married for 11 years, so I haven't gotten the techniques down quite like some of you more seasoned veterans.

I dont need to justify my purchases.

I've been married 27 years and both of us are employed. She has her money and I have mine. As long as commitments are met, there is no justification required. If either of us lost sight of our priorities and spent the mortgage money, I'd fully expect the other to ask: WTF? Hasn't happened yet and don't expect it to. Unless it does, I am the only person I justify my purchases with.

My wife lets me do as I wish, as I do her. Life is good. Just another reason we love each other, no secrets, no surprises.

 

[Dirtebiker]

my 2nd marriage, her money is her money, my money is MY money only way to have it!

Not really a "marriage" then!

"And now you are ONE"!
It's not "hers"and "mine" now, it's "ours"!
It's not "she" and "I", it's "we"!
"our" money is "ours"!

Your not painting a pretty picture of her! A smoking, caffeine junkie, covered in make-up, in high heels, with fake hair!

Me and the wife take turns. I bought matching pistols and I had to build her an AR. We both work and all the money goes in one account. After the bills and such get paid we figure out whose turn it is. Interesting debate sometimes!
