What kind of crap is this? A woman being reasonable about the household finances. Quick someone get her to the hospital
Seriously though, IMO that's the only way a relationship can work. Even if you're married and finances are pooled there needs to be play money for each person.
In my case I'd rather go to the next 3 MotoTT track days ($300 entry fees, $100 accommodation, $150 gas, $600 tyres) than get a new sound for my bike. Of course if I hadn't spent $2k on a new TV I'd be busy justifying spending it on the bike![]()
Oh very funny!
Having your own money as well as a joint account is definitely the way to go
You generally have different priorities to most people so its only logical that people are going to disagree on how money is best spent.
Some people just don't understand the satification that you can get out of bikes (or any hobby for that matter) and thats fine, but they shouldn't stop you from spending money on something you enjoy, just accept that thats what they like.
Or you could just buy her some diamonds as well Im sure she couldnt complain then
I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!
Thanks to all for the suggestions. Clearly there are some very intelligent people with some very good ideas. Thanks spookytooth, Rockbuddy & Shafty.![]()
Beer Is Proof That God Loves Us And Wants Us To Be Happy
That doesn't work.
I spent ... hmmmm... about $6k on bling for her one year, but still got grumbled at about the bike jacket she bought me for Xmas/birthday (for the same price as one of her several Adrienne Winkleman suit jackets).
Obviously, logic does not enter into it.
You need cunning, not logic.
I bought a VFR with an aftermarket pipe already fitted.
Forward thinking FTW!![]()
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....![]()

Leave little post-it notes everywhere
For my Birthday I want an aftermarket exhaust!
For Valentines day I want an aftermarket exhaust!
For our Wedding Anniversary I want an aftermarket exhaust!
If you loved me you would buy me an aftermarket exhaust!
No body move... I dropped my brain
That's cunning talking, not thinking.
I think this job calls for both types of cunning: thinking, talking, native cunning, and underhanded tactics.
And being good with numbers...
Oh - and you realise that if by some weird twist of fate you are actually successful in getting an aftermarket zorst AND retaining your wedding tackle, you're going to have some SERIOUS sucking-up to do when the bike fails a WOF or roadside test for being too loud...
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....![]()
