[QUOTE="Richard Harrow, post: 968893, member: 29614"] Haha. I follow what you're saying. I've seen from near and afar how UPS can destroy a marriage (not implying anything about you), but I can say with all the confidence in the world that I have no issues like this when it comes to my wife. We have an excellent working relationship when it comes to money (amongst other things). She regularly shovels money at me for my hobbies (none of which are illegal, one of which is this Saturday at Churchill Downs, KY) and she gets her money for the things she enjoys. The bills are paid, the kids are fed, and everyone is happy. The best example I could ever use to describe how cool my wife goes like this: When I was 18, I bought a classic muscle car. It was always in very nice shape in terms of the body, paint, and interior but the engine needed work. Anyhow, fast-forward to May 2004. We're both 22 and we get married after about 5 years of dating. A few months after the wedding we're looking at houses and I tell her that I think it's time for the car to go, that the extra $18 or $20k would be great towards a down payment. She would have none of it. Two weeks later it was at the shop getting an engine rebuild. 8 years later, it's still parked in our garage. We say we both found keepers, and we both go out of our way to keep it strong. I am a lucky man. [/QUOTE]
