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

Be clear and upfront with her that is something you want to do, and what the costs are, so she doesn’t have any surprises. Set up some sort of system so you can save up for them without hindering you financially. Make a savings account or set up some sort of budgeting system for them, and keep your wife in the loop.

I’d also like to add that guns hold their value pretty well, as long as you take care of them you can recoup most of your costs or even make a profit if you ever want to sell them, the money spent isn’t just going away.
