Everyone's situation is different so we may as well keep it humorous.
Also I know she is gathering evidence of me treating myself, to be used against me in the upcoming Argument About Why We Should Get A Dog.
Ok - to lighten the mood, what I've done successfully in the past a few times.
Buy cheap guitars, it almost doesn't matter what - you're aiming for good resale values but not too expensive.
Keep doing this, until you're reaching Bonamassa levels.
She get's pissed off at the space, you say you're right - I've got a problem, I'll sell them all and just have one or two good ones.
You sell them (think of them as a savings plan), and top up a little and boom!
Pedals are easy, down the trousers and straight up stairs
And also - buy things with the lowest number of lights you can, sparkly things attract their attention
Its not about lies etc its not something thats going to rock a marriage to the core.
A hell of a ,lot of Women will probably never understand GAS, and why should they, we all know its silly and unreasonable but that doesn't mean we should get an earbashing for every purchase,
so this is a viable thread,
the Dad brigade need to go to another thread....probably about sunburst les pauls / telecasters and how to not have a sense of humor.
Many wimmins are also hoarders for some things... shoes, knickers, make up, shiny geegaws for the shelf, or if the wimmins is like my sort of wimmins, tools, guitars, computers and (proper) headphones ... as well as clothes and boots...
Just ... bend the truth on the actual value when buying equal values... if you buy a £3000 guitar it might not be a great plan to buy £3000 of knickers and shoes as you might run out of house to fit it all in.
I'm 54 so that's Grandad to you. Oh and leave my sunburst LP out of it.
As far as the guitars go - I've built a few, and that is as much of a rewarding hobby as the actual playing. And a helluva lot easier to justify to both myself and my wife.
adam.
2. Mrs A's side project is a lot more expensive that mine (4 kids)
3. Mrs A no 1 is under the patio
Any questions?
In all seriousness, my wife's been pretty good about all of this for the last 12 years or so (the first five years of our relationship, we had many issues). Her perspective is, "The bills are paid. You worked hard for the money, so spend it however you want."
I realise I'm quite lucky that way.
As the major breadwinner and protector of my family I have chosen to emasculate myself rather than face the untold horror of being responsible for my actions and decisions.
