Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase

Chadnliz, women have their games too, for sure. My wife played the 'if it's expensive, hide it for several months, then wear it' game. When I'd say, hey, new dress/shoes/jewelry, she says 'no, I've had this for a long time'. She also played the 'this was a great sale, $200 marked down to $15' game, then show me a $15 tag that may or may not belong to that item.

We stopped playing those games years ago. We never discuss $$$ at all anymore. She might say, hey, new amplifiers huh? I might say, hey you got a new necklace huh? The other one says yes, new amp/necklace, whatever, and that's the end of it. I keep a seperate bank account and credit cards, so does she. So we really don't know, and we're fine with that.

Cheers,
John

is non-disclosure considered deception??? If I am 100% guilty. Typically, my wife and I don't talk about our purchases unless it impacts the family in some way. We really do not care how much the other spends as long as we can pay our bills and continue to save at the rate we agreed upon. It helps that we both have our "fun" accounts separate from the family account. What we do with this money is no one's business. I have found this to be a great arrangement.

I believe in the Bill Clinton rule: I don't ask about shoes, she don't ask about stereos... we have a very happy marriage....

yeah well let me see there was the $3900 Mcintosh MA 6900 integrated amp I got for "ONLY" $300 bucks and the Mcintosh 74 tuner I picked up for $50 bucks ($900) and the Klipsch RF 63 they were only $400 bucks ($1800) sold stocks cashed out some of the 401K I'm ten G's in the hole guys but on my fuzzy cooked accounting books jeez this very nice looking stereo system was only $1800 bucks honey can you please start dinner

I'm looking for the person who constantly breaks into our home and leaves audio equipment all over the darn place!!!
