Justifying Gun purchase

[Che762x39]

I have a friend who spends $10 a day at Starbucks, it all gets pissed away. Stop that for a year and you're there.

As I look back I have blown $3k on lame things in the past and I have nothing to show for it. Your new toy would last forever.

Dan, that is not bad. My lame ex-wife cost me about $600K upfront plus 50% of my pension forever.

will it prevent you from making your mortgage payment?
Who cares, I rent now. See number 3
will you still have food on the table?
Ramon is food
can your wife spend the same?
What wife? See number 1
do you still "need" it?
YES!

How does Ramon taste? I never stooped so low to buy guns but I do know someone that did hit rock bottom and "taste" a random Black guy for a crack rock at very worst of his addiction. This thread reminds me why I never got married.

I will never get permission from a woman to spend the money I earned the way I see fit especially as long as all bills and such are covered. I'd say it is pretty simple. Buy if you can afford. If you can't dont.

I'd be hesitant to buy though if I knew my wife was going to spend an equivalent amount on frivolous things that have no or little resale value.

Oh you totally need it! Will take seconds off your time and add points to your score. Not a want...A NEED!

We are nothing here if not enablers!

You're welcome!

Oh yes I forgot to mention my wife said she wants the same $$$ that I spend on my new gun and so far that's only thing making me second guess it lol. I have a good saving account so no problem feeding and paying mortgage lol. I shoot 3 matches a month and I have owned an STI before and sold it and lost about $1000 and regret selling it and funny thing is my wife said don't sell it you know you will want one again and sure enough I'm here 1 year later and she said I told you so. I miss the weight I miss the look I miss the trigger and just owning it. But when it boils down my performance wasn't any different between the glock 34

Sound like you should ask your wife again, instead of us here on the forum. From your description, it sounds like she has you pretty much figured out
