    I know that now. For the life of me, I could not remember the name so I basically pulled Deep Throat out of the air.

    You should reread my post though. I never said it was just my money.
    I also said that all the money matters must be taken care of first.
    I dont bother about my wives toiletries or how many shoes she owns!!
    I misinterpreted your post.

    Hey Bruno,
    I'ts ok. I reread my post and can see how it might be taken wrong!
    My only point was that we as men should act like men and not little boys, dignified, doing whats right so that our wives will not feel tempted to act like our mothers!!

    I must say that I appreciated your first post in this thread!!

    Yes but some women will be like that whatever you do. I still think ignorance is bliss and have your razors sent to work.

    Razors are similar in procreation to rifles and fly rods. Left alone in the dark they multiply. My wife has no idea how many rifles or razors we own, but then I have no idea how many pairs of shoes or purses we own.

    You have to build your collection to critical mass and then these problems go away. Once your wife ignores your razors because there are so many of them there's no point keeping track, anymore, you're home free. The same thing works for bows and fishing rods and knives and guns, too, by the way. You just have to endure the pressure levied against you to keep your collection from reaching critical mass. The more desperate the pressure, the closer you know you are to making it to the safety zone.

    Trust me. I know something about women. I've been married three times.

    I try to get there by honing other people's razors. My wife is starting to get used to packages arriving from everywhere, and having razors lying around in the bathroom and on the mantlepiece.
    She has already stopped paying attention to straights coming and going.
    Soon I can slip in razors of my own and she won't notice.
    The only problem is that I cannot buy one of your masterpieces that way because 300$ MIA would be noticed.
    I'm working on that though. My argument is that any money I make on the side is not subject to the default rules for spending money.
    Hopefully somewhere this year...

    Actually, my wife is sympathetic to straights because I shave more often, and am smoother when I do.
    Straights have a useful purpose that she approves of
    Bows and fishing rods fall in the category useless, but could be forgiven. Knives and guns fall in the category 'them or me. choose'

    I think I'll like my way better.
    Apart from the fact that I love my wife and kid(s), I get to keep more of my money.
