this thread makes me laugh. i bet half the posters in here would go scurrying behind the couch if their wives saw them posting.

i´ve lived through all the stages with my wife. if you are spending money irresponsibly on a car then your wife could and should give you sh!t. if you are well off enough to have some money left at the end of the month but you have to take turns on big purchases, then she should weigh in, but let you do what you want. if you have a budget that has enough in it for both of you to have an "allowance" then she shouldn´t care how you spend it.

i feel blessed to finally have gotten to the final stage and not have to worry, but i don´t forget what it was like to have a passion for cars and barely have enough to pay rent and eat (or for car parts and ramen

and a lot bitching and complaining from the wife).

I always talk to her about what I want to buy for the cars/guns/electronic as a courtesy, but I've never been told I can't get something. Hey, she drives the car too and needs righteous tunes. The guns are merely to protect her. ...and don't tell me 7.1 surround doesn't make you smile. :-) She has her pressures too (fancy underwear/sparkly things/expensive hair product).

Buy it and answer questions later...been married for 20+ yrs , what is she gonna leave me cause I dropped 5k on an audio system... Ummm you remember 349k I spent on your house that I'll never pay for...lol, nuff said !

Dont ask permission of course they will say no, just buy what the hell you want...as long as you don't jeopardize the welfare of your family or deprive of a meal and take care of bills like you should...just do it !

There are two kinds of men in the world -- those who are right and those who are married.

Spstone · 09-12-2015, 02:19 PM

really I think after the money I spent on my '67 mustang build she's a little gun shy now. She's also extremely frugal and practical. Like to the point we got married at the courthouse because she couldn't see any practical purpose to wasting money on a wedding that could be used for a down payment on a house. I guess I got lucky there, just annoying some times.

If its you, then case closed. Its not like your taking food off the dinner table....

EPIC is right!

Could care less what my wife thinks, it's my money and I'll do whatever I choose to with it. In fact, she didn't even know I was getting the Nismo. I pulled up in the driveway, moved my SRT8 off one side of the garage and pulled the Z in and asked her to take me back to the dealer to get my SmartCar. All she said was " Wow another 2 seater ", Lol. I'm the responsible one when it comes to money and as long as the house is straight and my sons have everything they want then I'm good. Been married 17 years and my wife does what she pleases with her money, Exotic Vacations with her friends is her thing and I have no right nor do I question her on it. It kills me when guys on here actually post that they have to get an ok from there wives or even worse their GF's to spend their own money on something they want. For crying out loud "GROW A SET" !!!!
