My Wife Wants to Redistribute MY Wealth !!!!

Okay, so "wealth" is a bit of an exaggeration. I'm not sure when you cross the line into "wealth," but I'm fairly certain I ain't there.

So get this, my wife has somehow come up with the ridiculous notion that if I'm buying guns, she should be allowed an equal share of cash for her uses. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT???? What a load of horse poo!!

And to top it all off she dared state that I don't need another gun anyway because I don't ever get to shoot the ones I've got. AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! My lady has gone nuts.

Somehow, this MUST be Obama's fault.

    Did you explain to her that paying the mortgage was her 1/2?

    I told her she could have as much as she wants from the $$ she brings in...........then reminded her that "lounging" around the house all day living off the blood, sweat, and tears of her man doesn't bring in zip.

    Never mind the screaming baby in the baby in the background [;)] I'm on thin ice here, brothers.

    You will never "win" this argument.

    Your best hope is for this to be a draw for the rest of the time you spend together.

    Pick something she spends money on, be it dishes, shoes, jewelry or whatever. When she spends money on that item, don't ask her to justify it, just remind her that guns are the same in your mind, as that whatever is to her.

    Automatic stalemate. Which is a win in case you haven't noticed.

    Why do you think I'm single..Ain't going to support another woman, She has to pay her fare share, and then she can have what ever is left over of her earnings And I do the same.. BTW fare is equal, not Obama's interpretation...

    I've been distributing the wealth between the wife and our two girls for what seems like a VERY long time and none of the three are getting any cheaper to maintain as the years roll along.
