What do you buy if.....

[Grumpy Old Man]

You woke up this morning and found out that you have $400 that your wife/girlfriend doesn't know about. What you buy.

- A new knife that costs all of $400
- A new knife and a bottle of bourbon
- A Japanese whetstone
- A gift for your wife/girlfriend
- You give the money to your wife/girlfriend (who spends it on something....)
- You save money so that you can buy something even more expensive in the future
- You change everything into $1 bills and go to a strip bar

I say buy the knife you want….. unless you already have enough.

 

[1911bphil]

My wife will find out, she always does. Give her half and I'll stay out of trouble. Buy a custom from one of our awesome makers here on BF.

unless you already have enough

Enough?................ there is never enough!

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

My wife will find out, she always does.

I think they have the ability to "smell" where the money is

My wife don't care. Maybe because I don't care what she buys. Anyway, knife and strip club, with the singles left over from said knife purchase. I just can't bring myself to spend more than 300 on a blade.

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

I just can't bring myself to spend more than 300 on a blade.

I, on the other hand, usually only start looking at knives that cost more than $300

in to the high interest savings account it goes

in to the high interest savings account it goes

I hope you live in a state where interest income is not taxed.

~$100 to either a wharncliffe K390 Endela, or the dealer exclusive M4 or 20CV Endura. Undecided. I've got a few $400 knives but I keep carrying the $100-200 ones.

~$100 to dinner with the wife.

Remainder to the HYSA, with mrknife on that one.

I hope you live in a state where interest income is not taxed.

Unfortunately not, but without getting into a detailed personal finance discussion the HYSA is currently better for our situation than invested elsewhere or towards other debt.

I hope you live in a state where interest income is not taxed.

ironically i do, but probably not in the worst one i think.

 

[Delgadonine]

Buy yourself a $50 knife and your girlfriend/wife a $350 knife and hope she doesn't use it on you for even mentioning strippers!

Do the dishes, mow the lawn, take out the trash and wash her car to further demonstrate your remorse!

I think they have the ability to "smell" where the money is

If she can smell money she will sure smell the cheap stripper perfume!

I say give her the cash to spend how she wants and there’s you rationalization for spending money on a new knife. Everybody plays everybody wins!

 

[Grasshopperglock]

Buy an American power outlet, first.

 

[Quiet]

In days past, I'd have said "Time to buy a knife!!!". These days, I would stack that cash until it had enough friends with it to get something I really wanted that was sufficiently rare and custom.

 

[Delgadonine]

If she can smell money she will sure smell the cheap stripper perfume!

We now need to establish a network of hiding places for you! If your wife, sorry, Wife sees this she'll want to know how you know anything about 'cheap stripper perfume'?!

I see you and Grumpy Old Man on the run together selling knives for gas money and such. Thelma and Louise, but different.

 

[Deino]

No girlfriend, no wife, I have all of that freedom.
- I would like to get a custom, since I already set a budget for it.
- Save it to buy food, since things are getting expensive nowadays.

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

- Save it to buy food, since things are getting expensive nowadays.

Even in the Urban Area it is easy to get "free" food

My wife don't care. Maybe because I don't care what she buys. Anyway, knife and strip club, with the singles left over from said knife purchase. I just can't bring myself to spend more than 300 on a BLONDE...
