Does your wife, or girlfriend know?

1) The exact amount you spend on cigars.

2) About half of the true amount you spend on cigars.

3) She might be lucky if she knew a quarter of what you spend.

4) She has no clue what I spend...........God help me if she ever checks the bank, or credit card statement!!!!!
 
...forgot one:

5) - Doesn't know, and doesn't care. She figures I pay all the bills on time and take care of business, so what I choose to spend on my hobby is my business and not her concern.

Yes, I'm a lucky guy..... :cool:

You're lucky like me Tom. Mine is pretty laid back about it too. I just don't advertise it when I go on those super benders. :whistling:

Oh, she saw the boxes start showing up right after the Staebell arrived, so she's got a pretty good clue what's going on..... :whistling:.... :cool:

I figure I fall between 4 and 5. She doesn't know, and I don't feel like taking the chance of her finding out. She might not say anything, but she could say " we could take a trip to the islands for that much money."

Good topic.

Okay... I'm a number 2, but I figure what she doesn't konw wont kill her. Huh... I wonder if that is going to change when we are actually married..??? It won't, right guys? ??? :0

better start stocking up now...

You also forgot #6) Don't have a wife or G/F, so you can buy all you want without worrying about your significant other bitching!
 
I'd be about a 1.5... she knows about most of it since we have a budget, but I manage to slip in some purchases here and there. :)
 
TheWife[sup]©[/sup] pretty much knows, but she really doesn't care. I don't get carried away and I NEVER lie about purchases. I don't tell her about every single thing I buy, nor does she tell me about every single thing she buys. We're not keeping secrets, it's just not a big deal as long as we don't overspend. I do the bookkeeping, so I know exactly how much goes where, but I have no idea about the specifics of her purchases.

I'm not sure what number that makes me...

Remember, there are 3 prices for every purchase you try to sneak in or lie about: the price you pay, the price you tell her you pay, and the price you pay when she finds out the price you paid. The last one is a big one...

I try to keep it in balance and just keep it at one price.

:)

Well said Tom. It's called trust :D

My wife loves the smell of cigars, it's almost got to the point where she knows what I'm smoking from the smell. No all but certainly NC's and maduro's.

My wife knows that I have an ever growing collection. I dont share all my costs with her as I do not quiz her on her purchases.
She is a non smoker but smells my cigars just to appease me I am sure. Some she thinks are nice but mostly she turns her nose up at them.
If she ever quizzed me on total cost I would have no hesitation on telling her.

OMG, that's an awesome answer.

My wife knows I spend ~$2000-2500 a year on golf stuff, cigars and pipes & baccy, and aside from that, $800-1000 on smokes during each visit to Cuba (that's a lot of real geenhewhine glass top Waccy-Baccy filled Coheebas, eh??).

That's all my play money and while she laughs at what I buy once in a while, doesn't give a damn.
