Who gets one first? The wife or you?
OK, so let's say you and your wife wants a Rolex but you only have enough money for one right now. Do you buy one for you wife first or do you buy yourself one?
By the way, lets say you'll have enough for the 2nd watch in 6 month. Who gets one first? One last thing, the husband (Me) wants it more then she does!!! I hope I hear what I want to hear!!! |

Unfortunately JJ, we don't have seperate accounts. What's mine is hers and what's hers is mine. And that include bank accounts...

I asked my wife this question. Her immediate reply was that she would "let" me get the first Rolex on the understanding she would end up with more later.
