I am only pointing this out because some people apparently find this significant.



It's only significant if you brag on it and use it to hang your hat on as some sort of validation.

Don't worry, you're still a bitch.

This restriction sucks. It comes shortly after a ban on bobcat hunting. Arizona or Nevada here I come for fall hunts.

If a guy is fortunate enough to have his wife’s income help support his endeavors, which probably applies to many, if not most here, therefore his exploits, exceptional as they may be, have no validity?

Always have told my wife that if she was truly rich, as in megabucks, I'd have no problem being a kept man.

Of course, I'd likely do all I could to have a few places to stay outside this State.

One in AZ, one in MT, two in AK, maybe one in the Northeast. A man can't hunt western game only you know.

I'm pretty sure my marriage vows at least implied that all funds were to go into a joint bank account. I mean compared to everything else promised that seemed a minor detail smile

Joint account yes, but getting the funds out for hunting trips can be difficult to do if one wants to instill harmony in the relationship.

Not ALL funds of ours go in the joint account. That was established early on. Eggs in one basket type of thing maybe?

Must be working. Been together since '96, married since '99.

Found this post rather entertaining. If you all only knew how many east and west coasters have been lost on my properties.........requiring search by me after dark, when they didn't show.

Most couldn't get a hold of me, because no cell service down in a valley.

Also, most don't know east from west, even on a sunny day. When you start talking directions......deer in headlights look.

Flat land, you bet.

I always tell them to fire 3 arrows in the air when they get lost........they nod.

We started out putting reflectors 100 yards apart.......now we put them 25-30 yards apart.

Many have problems with barbwire fences.......and gravel roads too.

Nope, it was all for her smarts. wink

I've had this discussion with buds over the years. My answer hasn't changed. Put her coin in a trust for the kids for college, or toys. Pride is a hard thing, but necessary IMHO.

Luckily (or not?) ain't been an issue here. One pot everything goes into. Lean or fat still one pot. If she won't live with me on what I make then she isn't worth having.

I wouldn't be able to be a kept man living off someone else's funds. Just doesn't sit well.

BGG,

if, in the course of life, you ran into a gal who was "independently wealthy" and you two got together, you would ask her to put all her money in a trust for the kids (we don't have that issue, both in our 40s when we met) and then ask her to live on what you make? Even if she asked you to move in with her in her mansion if S FL (you could visit 'flave there!) for part of the year and live in a nice "cabin" in MT during hunting season?

The first few years together we struggled some, then I got the good job, paid for the higher ticket items like health insurance, getting cars repaired, down payment on our first new car together. Eventually her career caught up and passed mine and she took over some of that stuff.

We both agreed, if we ever hit the PowerBall for big bucks though, we'd take jobs or volunteer with things we really enjoyed and help our siblings and such. Money is to enjoy.........................after the bills are paid that is!

I shall answer this, I am married to my wife and what is mine is her's...and vice versa.


Unless the wife in question is a bitch in which case what is her's is mine and what is mine is my own.

I tend to agree.

My wife laughs when I tell her I'm putting my foot down though.

I kinda like her so I hang around even though I have to accept her bringing peanut butter across my threshold. I hate that stuff.
