Dang, she asked THAT question!

[Marty McFly]

my wife is more pragmatic.

'what will we do with all this junk when you`'ll be over this new obsession?'
she knows me too well.

My wife asks me what she's supposed to do with this stuff when I kick it. I tell her to sell it to my friends for pennies in the dollar.

She doesn't like that idea

I often say whenever I'm leaving "If I die avenge my death. And don't touch my stuff."

The Mrs. and I have a deal. She won’t count the guns in the safes and I won’t count the shoes in her closet.

My wife’s perspective changed when she started shooting with me. Prior to that she thought that i might have a slight excess.

Now that eight of the firearms here are “hers” she’s more interested in what she might acquire next.

The funniest part is that she likes her Sigs, hates my Glocks. I’m easier - if it goes “bang” I like it. Except for Taurus or Highpoint - or any fotay. Gotta have some standards.

 

[chopper_man]

My answer when it happened. "Not sure, few k at least. But no worries, it'll be enough to send you on a nice vacation when I pass." Never asked again. Little does she know, it'll be a whole new retriement fund for her! LOL!

 

[cookiecutter]

I think that the subject came up once or twice, but that was before my wife got into tools ... left to my own devices, I would buy tools, but I would probably buy more value conscious versions, so all the new tools really are "her purchases" ... if a new firearm shows up, all she says now is "I'm glad you bought yourself something nice ... you work hard!" Given that she really doesn't like guns, that amount of no problem has me a little concerned about what she actually spends on her hobbies!

Same deal here. But honestly, I think her shoes cost way more

 

[Mark from MA]

Lets just say I made the list for my kids, so they will know the rough value. Then put it in the safe which only my son and father have the combo.

That said my dad's collection is added to that, and I didn't pay for any of those.

That reminds me....I need to make some additions its been a busy 5 months since the first of the year.

I keep telling my wife that when she dies I'm auctioning off all her jewelry. She tells me back that if I do that she'll come back an haunt me until I die and then nag at me for eternity. I'm still up in the air about it. She wants to give it away to family. I don't even like most of those people.

 

[StevieP]

Well *that one* only cost $10. I won it in the gun club charity raffle.

 

[Stee]

my wife came into the gun room and saw I was oiling my three Garands. Why do you need three of them she asked.. Well this one is an investment and the other two, one is for shooting right hand and the other for shooting left hand....ooh

 

[240Geezer]

By using the word invested and not how much money have you spent on guns is a good sign…

Maybe.
Depends on if she's planning to add to your investment, or kill you to collect it.

 

[SIGNES]

The bills get paid on time and in full. The retirement contributions are maxed out, GOAL donations made. It's not been an issue, yet anyway, but well see if I get away with the CZ I've been eyeballing without comment.

 

[general disorder]

The best one I ever came up with was years ago I had just bought a Sig 220. She knew I had two guns but not about the newly purchased Sig. Or the 1911 for that matter. I walked into the room that I was keeping them in at the time and she's looking at the 220 completely perplexed by the fact that somehow this gun looks different. I had a twix moment and jumped into action. I yelled at her and said "hey don't touch that! Is that loaded!" she looked at me completely stunned and said "I don't know" I said exactly. It's not, but if it was and you shot yourself than what. Than I would have lost you and to top it off I would be charged in your death. I've offered to teach you how to shoot and you don't want to. That's fine but don't mess with things that you don't know about. That's how people get hurt. I took the gun and put it back on whatever cheap gun cabinet I had at the time. Then I said I have to go get some milk. One of my best moments ever. She never really asked me about any of guns after and that was probably over 20 years ago.

My wife stopped asking when I truthfully answered what I paid for the Nightforce glass on my Barrett.

I recently trolled my kids and told them I was going to sell off 50 or so from the collection to finance a new garage and the resultant apoplexy was….worth it

... totally normal for guys your age to have a wife plottin...i mean asking about their death

Unrelated are you a light sleeper?

 

[LT5]

I do spend more on boots than guns annually. But i do not spend 10-12 hours a day shooting my guns.

Holy chit.
And I thought I was a boot snob lol.

 

[bigben111435]

the only answer to that question is

not enough

 

[LT5]

I often say whenever I'm leaving "If I die avenge my death. And don't touch my stuff."

I add to that “and don’t check my search history either.”

 

[Reptile]

I add to that “and don’t check my search history either.”

My girlfriend (who us a lingerie model) searches my search history and threatens to post it on NES.

I got her beat though...

It's already been posted on here...

One way I know she searches my history is that she looks up the same EXACT porn clips on HER computer that I already looked up on MY computer.

Then, in the evening - she coincidentally wants to "role play" all the dirty stuff I watch during the day!

Round 2!!!

We are a match made in heaven.

My girlfriend (who is a lingerie model) doesn't have time to search through all my posts on NES.

In her spare time she's on the Gucci forum posting about bags, shoes, clothing, jewelry and everything else Gucci that she collects and keeps in her office and storage room.

 

[Palladin]

My wife once asked me about my guns, cost, value, etc. I replied "it's like your Coach bags, we both pay $500 for what we want. But in 4 yrs, your bag is worthless, my gun most likely appreciated in value"

That ended the questioning

 

[Stee]

I cannot complain about my wife, five years ago when I retired she said would you like something for your retirement? I said yes, a custom 45..l she said order it. Ill pay..4700 dollars later and another year it came home with me.

 

[jaypap]

This is why they make Glocks you can have 10 and they all look alike. She wouldn't know the difference, just saying.

 

[Fritz the Cat]

Holy chit.
And I thought I was a boot snob lol.

Two things worth spending money on; your boots and your bed. Because if you are not in one you are in the other.
I wear out about one pair of boots a year. I am on my feet 12 hours a day, sometimes more. Cheap boots hurt my feet and wear out in months. Penny wise but pound foolish.

Or invest in a computer and remote work.
Don't need to buy pants or expensive boots.

My last interview for a promotion (we do that sh*t where I work), I was wearing shorts with a dress shirt, jacket and tie. LOL.

So in your case the two things are your bed and your office chair.....
Because you are either on your back or your ass.

I bust on my project managers all the time. They sit in the office all day typity typing away while my crew and i actually get shit done.
Last month they bought all new chairs for the office, but they came disassembled. Who did they call? LOL. The office will never live it down.
