Shitpost / Memes Convincing the boss
I know there’s a lot of guys on here who say “Buy once/cry once or who buy it and sneak it into the safe but let she realistic…
How do you convince the wife, between mortgage, bills, renovations, etc. etc. to not lose her absolute mind when you want to drop $1000+ on a new firearm?
I’m trying to have a happy marriage here folks. Give me your tips/strategies

Have a budget or allotment for hobbies and spend it as fit.
My wife doesn't care when I drop $10k on a gun cause it's from my hobby fund.
As long as bills are paid and we have our date nights can't complain.
I put x amount per week into an account just for shooting. What I spend it on doesn't matter to her as long as the only money I'm spending on it is from that account.
That said I'm of the quality over quantity. I have 6 guns probably worth more than some guys have in 15 guns.
