[QUOTE="bamban, post: 2837587, member: 17722"] Sometimes you just have to suck it up. Expenses on my toys do not dip into the household money. I accumulated my mad money when I was getting at least 25% bonus a month for over two years. Made a deal with the CFO that every other month is mine, the rest goes to her to manage along with stock grants and options I cashed out. I bought my weapons from my mad money account that the wife does not audit. Fast forward to 2015, 4 years into retirement I decided I wanted to learn how to chamber my own barrels. I will turn 71 this year and have been retired, retired since 2011. I sold weapons to finance 4 lathes, a Bridgeport mill, tooling, gauges, indicators, etc. Having more fun now in the garage, though the wife is not, her CTS stays outside..lol No regrets, still have 3 safes full I need to sell off. Kids don't want them. I guess their Left Coast (2 Left Coast now) education made them forgot their TX upbringing... oh well.. they decided the other Left Coast (NE, NOVA) is their permanent residences since graduation.
